Those reactors in subs are pushing 100 MWT. Mk I is around 2 MWe and a MKII may peak out slightly higher than that. You cannot that kind of power in something like that. Look at the copper cables they make the hook up with for a clue.

when 3 rectors can power atalantis - I don't think so. And don't forget that the naquadria rectors are much more efficient a nuclear rector has to have all the extra bits to turn heat into electricity/steam.

The cables usually shown connected to the rectors are not thick enough to run a cooker obviously the writers are unfamiliar with ohms law :-)

I suspect that Sam or Rodney would hand wave it as superconducting cables.

It was 5 reactors.. not 3.
