Overview

The small battery is a single block similar to the Battery but with a limited power store capacity.

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.
