Description

This drill uses gas power for mining, instead of batteries like the others. The drill's mining speed is a function of the pressure differential between its canister and external atmosphere meaning it will slow down as you deplete it's gas canister, but it's equal to the Mining Drill (Heavy) at pressure differentials at or above 6 MPa and is faster than the Mining Drill at pressures above ~3.6 MPa.

This also means that you can effectively give it an upgrade by using the smart canister to gain a much higher operation time between recharges. You can use any gas to provide the pressure.
