Ellis has such a strong connection with his Bonded explosives that he can see through what would be their eyes, if they were people. Which they aren't. Bombs are just objects... At any rate, in order to see details around his frie...bomb, Ellis will have to devote his full attention to monitoring the ward, making him vulnerable. However, he will also be alerted should any beings cross over the perimeter of one of his wards (if he's not too distracted to notice the alert).
In order to use a bomb as a ward, Ellis must first have performed the Ritual of Bomb Bonding with this particular explosive. This ritual lasts three minutes, and involves a complex geometric dance. During the ritual, the bomb will detonate and then immediately piece itself back together several times, imbuing a small fragment of Ellis' soul within it. No damage will be dealt to anything, but anything within a 3 meter radius that is flammable might appear slightly singed. Once a bomb is Bonded, it will remain that way until it is destroyed.
