China develops radioactive battery to keep your phone charged for 50 years.

The battery will not catch fire or explode in response to punctures or even gunshots, unlike some current batteries that can be unsafe if damaged or exposed to high temperatures, says Chinese startup Betavolt.

The company has said the project already entered the pilot testing stage and will eventually be mass-produced for commercial applications like phones and drones.

Betavolt said its first nuclear battery could deliver 100 microwatts of power and a
voltage of 3V while measuring 15x15x5 cubic millimetres. It plans to produce a battery with 1 watt of power by 2025.

"This new energy innovation will help China gain a leading edge in the new round of the AI technological revolution."
