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 stores and provides half as much power per Power Cells, and 90% as much power per volume as the Battery, so in most cases if the Battery is an option it should be used.

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
