Power Cells

Power Cells are a consumable power source. Once crafted, they provide power to whatever they are attached to. Once all 8 cells are depleted, the Power Cells will be destroyed.

Crafting
Power Cells are crafted using the backpack and require 1x Zinc.

Usage

 * Power Cells contain 1.5x as much power as a Small Battery.
 * Power Cells cannot be recharged, and instead evaporate once depleted.
 * In total, Power Cells hold 12 Bars, enough to fill one and a half Small Batteries.
 * Power Cells discharge at 1A, a power rate that fills one Bar every four seconds.

Trivia

 * Power Cells are traditionally reserved as a backup power source for emergencies, due to the relative abundance of Compound on Terran and ease of production in the Soil Centrifuge.
 * On a similar note, Power Cells cannot be crafted if the backpack's power is empty, even if attached Small Batteries are not depleted.
 * Power Cells discharge to the player's backpack automatically if it isn't already full.
 * Due to their small size and relatively high energy density, a single power cell can fuel a Small Rover for more than half an hour. They aren't useless on Medium Rovers, either.
