You (well, one) can buy a black box type reactor. Comes sealed, on a

Problems may occur when counterfeit ones start arriving from China.

There is no such device. Nor will there be.


The Toshiba 4S, Babcock & Wilcox mPower, and Hyperion Power Generation
designs are all *considerably* smaller than an old town gas works site.

Granted, the various "fits on a lorry" designs are likely to remain
marketing dreams ...


Fits in a nuclear sub is not.

I don't say you could get the genny in the lorry, but you might get a
complete reactor in there.

An actual reactor is very small. Whats big is the shielding and the
cooling..
