I wonder what a single-use LENR nano-weapon would look like, and consist of?

I've been excited about the possibilities of LENR for commercial application... the potential for mischief with LENR is disconcerting. If everyone has virtually unlimited energy available to themselves, could we even survive? I'm concerned with both governmental misbehavior, and what a reckless neighbor kid might do with this stuff...

I'm concerned about con artists using LENR to sucker people out of their money.

It would be really small, would take 4 hours to warm up and do nothing.

The Pentagon will no doubt order a few billion worth.

***On one of these LENR threads there was a guy who thought this could replace gunpowder. It was difficult for me to see how. I can see how this would power an EM rail gun on a ship, but if we get to the point of individual infantry carrying railgun weapons and the average teenager in Beirut replacing his RPG with a LENR particle beam, we are all hosed.

A bible prophecy that comes to mind is 1 Thessalonians 5:3.
