YouTuber Double M Innovations has shown how radioactive decay can be turned into usable electricity; but the output remains extremely small.

The device works by using tritium, a radioactive form of hydrogen often found in glow-in-the-dark products.

The material emits low-energy electrons that are captured by amorphous solar cells to make electricity.
