The Charge Battery is an item introduced in the Aberration DLC. Charge Batteries filled with Charge Light can be used as a source of electricity for powering electrical devices.

Usage[]

Any electrical device can be powered by putting a charged Charge Battery into its inventory and turning it on. One Charge Battery can hold up to 500 units of Charge Light.

Charge Batteries are used to power the following tools:

You can use a transmitter to transfer the batteries off world to another server that doesn't have the chargers.

Charging[]

Charge Batteries can be slowly filled with Charge Light by placing them in the inventory of a Charge Node or a City Terminal. They will charge at a rate of approximately 2.5 charge/second in charge nodes and 2 charge/second in city terminals. Up 10 batteries will charge at one time. They can also be filled by the following creatures:

With Tek Stryder you can:

  • In radial menu "Harvest * charge" from Tek Stryder to Charge Batteries in your inventory;
  • Place Charge Batteries in Tek Stryder's inventory to slowly (like in City Terminal 2 charge in a second) charge batteries, but only one at a time.

Charge Light can be transferred between two batteries by dragging one battery over another. The latter battery will then absorb the charge from the first one.

Notes[]

  • Cheat command "AddEquipmentDurability <amount>" can be used to add energy to batteries in hotbar.
  • The crafting ingredients shown in the Engrams menu are displayed incorrectly (all of them show up as 1)
