The batteries are already connected to a "heatsink" in the phones we use now. Fast charging can be as lossy as 86% for lithium ion batteries qt very high charge rates, so the 60w fast charging will dissipate more than 6w of heat already.

And yes, the radiation battery either has to constantly use the power or it will be just pumping the voltage up until something starts to conduct

Also, the thickness of the phone:

The power density is about 0.01125m³ per watt. A high end smartphone (snapdragon 8 gen 3 uses 11w of peak power) with a body size similar to Galaxy s23 ultra, would be almost 10 meters thick.

Yes. After a few centuries it will be harmless.

Too many of those floating around. Another gem I recently stumbled upon was power consumption of 4.7 watts per watt.

They do, if you give them enough room. And if you are born into an oil family.

The issue is not the radioactivity, it's the power density. Per the article, this is ~24x smaller than an average phone battery, but can supply only 100uW.

I have a relatively conservative phone use, and on average, my phone uses 450mW. That means that you'd need 4500 of those batteries in your phone. But the battery would also need to cover the power usage peaks, which are multiple times higher than the average power consumption.

If it has been a bug for 20+ years, we can safely say it's a feature for backwards compatibility.

What's wrong with their comment? Straight to the point, no unnecessary info.

Under proper storage, sperm will last indefinitely. At least based on what sperm banks say
