Small Battery

Description
The small battery is one of the items in Astroneer that you can craft from your backpack. It allows the player ot use their Terrain Tool for longer periods of time before recharging.

Crafting
The small battery is crafted in the backpack from 1 Lithium.

Usage
The small battery must be placed in one of the backpack's 8 main slots to be used. When connected via a Tether to a base module or vehicle the tank will store Power. The small battery can also be charged via a power source on the backpack, such as a Solar panel. The battery only begins to store once the main backpack battery has reached capacity.

While the player is draining power, such as when using the Terrain Tool, the small battery will drain its power prior to the main backpack battery.
