1.21 gigawatts? 1.21 gigawatts? Great Scott!

Toshiba battery

Back to the Future fans will remember the quote "1.21 gigawatts? 1.21 gigawatts? Great Scott!" I couldn't help but think of this famous line when I read about a new battery technology that generates 100 milliwatts of electricity.

Toshiba announced a fuel-cell breakthrough with a thumb-sized prototype designed to power MP3 players and cell phones. Apparently, it can power an MP3 audio player for about 20 hours on a single 2 cubic-centimeter charge of methanol fuel.

While it's not plutonium, 20 hours of playback is nothing to sneeze at!

On a very related note. Check out my blog 1.21gigawatts

but the nuclear powerhouses in the 80's could only offer 1.1 gigawatts. so i had to figure out what type of metal could become a great enough conductor with little resistance for 1.21 gigawatts of electricity to go through a parallel series. But the thing was different time lines allow for different power resources. Thus I figured having a mr.fusion would help.

OHM ygodwtfbbq!!!
