Forgot to mention that the battery is safe. Here's what the article says,
"And although the whole idea hinges on the use of radioactive materials, the devices are safe under normal operating conditions.
"People hear the word 'nuclear' and think of something very dangerous," Dr Jae said.
"However, nuclear power sources have already been safely powering a variety of devices, such as pacemakers, space satellites and underwater systems.""
I wonder how much current that little cell there can provide?
