The battery is a convenient solution to saving/reserving power, and using no fuel that reactors for example would otherwise require. Or in the case of an incident, provide emergency power while repairs are made.

See [[Battery]] for more information.
 
 
The battery block may be placed anywhere and unlike Reactors does not need to connected to a [[Conveyor]] network for refueling.

Overview

The small battery is a single block similar to the Battery but with a limited power store capacity. A battery, once built, already has a 5% charge, meaning it can be used immediately.

It is not possible to salvage Power Cells from a Small Battery, any power cells will be recovered as Scrap Metal, losing Nickel and Silicon.

Usage

See Battery for more information.
