a 1 hitpoint battery has the same capacity and wattage as a 100 hitpoint battery).Д¬onsumers can connect to batteries directly, up to a distance of 5 tiles away, by using the reconnect action on the consumer until it is connected to the battery. At least the rain will usually extinguish the fire.Дamage to a battery does not change its other properties and does not cause discharge (eg. If a battery becomes wet (either due to rain or snowfall), there is a very high chance of a short circuit, causing an explosion and fire (probably spreading to adjacent batteries and connected devices). If outdoors, a roof has to be built over the tiles occupied by the battery. As long as at least one consumer is connected, the battery will provide power during a deficit, and also be vulnerable to the short-circuit event. Installed batteries can not be switched off manually. Just like the other power producing buildings, a battery acts as a power conduit on the 2 tiles it covers. It is not possible to connect to batteries 'through' power consumers (this is because consumers can not be connected to more than one power grid at the same time). In order to charge a battery, it has to be directly connected to a power grid with excess power. All power consumers can connect to batteries in the same way as to other power sources: within a 5-tile radius, a device can directly connect to a battery (or array of batteries), without power conduits in between. With regards to power production, they behave like the other electric buildings in the game. They will keep their charge while stored ('minified') or disconnected, only discharging at the normal rate of 5 W (self-discharge).

Batteries are built, moved and stored like other kinds of movable furniture.
