In DOTM, when sam was going to activate the bomb Que gave him to stop Soundwave from killin Bee, you noticed it failed right? The gear worked fine earlier though right? You'll notice it no longer worked after Que was exicuted. You think it's possible that the bomb stopped working because Que died, like it was directly linked to his Life force somehow? Just some food for thought.

No, because NEST used them to kill Barricade and the others later.
Edit: Nevermind, those weren't boomsticks. It was primitive human technology.

Actually, didn't one of the NEST soldiers place a Boomstick on one of the Con's foot, blowing its leg off?

That's what I thought, but it was their own technology. They had to set off a detonator that the boom sticks didn't use.

The real answer is because the plot required the device to fail.
Alternatively, Que is also known as Wheeljack. Ae all know, Wheeljack's inventions have a habit of not working.
