[ RadSafe ] Litroenergy

Perhaps Stark is eluding to the fact that the beta particles can't penetrate 
the spheres. While this is true, Bremsstrahlung effects cause X-Ray 
radiation to exist beyond the surface of any Tritium powered light source. 
The X-Rays are of low energy, not easily detected with a standard probe, but 
a
pancake type thin window probe will reveal their presence.
