Interesting – I wonder how many platforms they would be used on?

[...] a lot of inventions have been made in this particular field. Recently, we have talked about the tiny nuclear batteries that can provide energy for 10 years, but they use radioactive elements and are quite expensive. [...]

I agree with you and thanks for the useful information. Nuclear batteries should not be designed for the mass production because it could pose a very imporant threat: imagine a terrorist faction buying 10 thousand batteries and using the plutonium for other reasons such as a... you guessed right:)) a nuclear bomb.

Just what we need, plutonium floating around. Bad idea on so many levels.

Hmm….I'm not sure how much radiation these things will produce…but since they're so small & thin, couldn't they just encase them in a layer of lead which should effectively block any radiation given off. Of course lead is toxic, but they can then put another layer of something else over the lead. It should be perfectly safe then.

Wow, that's awesome about the 1973 date. And great points about using them as cell phone batteries. That would be excellent.

Now if only a nuclear battery could be built to power a car for 200,000 miles.

while true. You encounter enough daily just from background radiation that a 3 cu battery isnt going to take even minutes off your life.
