Battery

The Battery is a Functional Block in Space Engineers.

Function
Batteries are useful blocks, especially when used alongside Solar panels. They store up to 360 kWh in Small Batteries and up to 1.00 MWh of energy inside Large ones, Functioning Similar to Reactors when charged, only that they use up Energy instead of Uranium, meaning they will never run out of power if sufficiently charged.

Options
Like nearly all Functional Blocks, there is the option to Hide the Block from being able to be viewed on the Terminal, and the option to have it shown on the HUD of an Engineer, provided there is an active Antenna connected to the structure.

There is also the option to Toggle the Block itself, powering it on and off.

The Recharge option begins storing energy within the battery from Solar Panels or Reactors when selected.

The Semi-auto option automatically begins charging the batteries when they're out of energy, and automatically begins giving out it's energy once it's fully charged.
