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

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.

The battery block may be placed anywhere and unlike Reactors does not need to connected to a Conveyor network for refueling.

Control Panel

  • Max Output - Maximum amount of power the battery can output to the grid
  • Max Required Input - Maximum amount of power the battery can receive when in recharge state
  • Max Stored Power - Maximum amount of power that can be stored on battery
  • Current Input - The amount of power that the battery is currently drawing from the grid
  • Current Output - The amount of power that the battery is currently providing to the grid
  • Stored Power - The remaining amount of power that is stored within the battery
  • Fully Depleted In - Time remaining till the battery is depleted of stored power
  • Fully Charged In - Time remaining till the battery is fully charged.
