The battery charger can charge 5 battery cells at once.

Power Consumption

Each charging battery will draw 500 Watts. The maximum amount of power needed for five batteries is 2500 Watts. Connecting the battery charger to heavy cables will not increase the charging rate. It consumes 10 Watt standby power when switched on regardless of the number of batteries connected.

Estimated Charging Times

Battery Type Capacity (J) Estimated Charging Time @ 500J/tick
Battery Cell (Small) 36,000 36s
Battery Cell (Large) 288,000 4m 48s
Battery Cell (Nuclear) 2,304,000 38m 24s

Data Network Properties

These are all Data Network properties of this device.

Data Parameters

These are all parameters that can be written with a Logic Writer, Batch Writer, or Integrated Circuit (IC10).


Parameter Name Data Type Description
On Boolean Turns the Battery Charger on, when set to 1. Turns it off, when set to 0.

Data Outputs

These are all parameters, that can be read with a Logic Reader or a Slot Reader. The outputs are listed in the order a Logic Reader's "VAR" setting cycles through them.

Output Name Data Type Description
Power Boolean Returns whether the Battery Charger is receiving power and is turned on. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
Error Boolean Returns whether the Battery Charger is flashing an error. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
On Boolean Returns whether the Battery Charger is turned on. (0 for no, 1 for yes)
RequiredPower Integer Returns the current amount of power, drawn by the Battery Charger.

Note

  • Previous bug: Having a filled battery in your charger will double charging time for the other ones. The time will double with each full battery present inside the charger when charging. (fixed in v0.1.1113.5609)
  • Previous bug: Batteries will only charge one at a time, but the power consumption will still be 500W per charging battery. So 5 batteries will use 2510W, but still only charge one battery at a time. (fixed in v0.2.1908.8707)
