How about a battery that lasts 25 years? The betavoltaic battery is an old design that has recently been reworked and is currently in testing for the military. It is actually a very small nuclear device and is very robust, but expensive. It is only good for low power applications, however, so you won't be using it for your caving light any time soon. <http://www.technologyreview.com/energy/23959/?nlid=2518&a=f>
