Flamethrower Gloves.

Yeah, that's exactly what I'm talking about. Fill a gas tank with Plasma/O2 mixture, strap it to your back, and ignite! The gloves constantly give you burn damage, something slight like 1/tic, they prevent you from holding anything in your hands while you're using them, and take up a back slot. In exchange, you get controlled plasma fire! No more just opening tanks in hallways and running away, we're men of science!
