✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Solid early-game boost with 273 endorsements and over 16k downloads.
- Doubles the base battery capacity, making early exploration less stressful.
- Upgrade path to Ion tech means your investment isn't wasted later.
⚠️ Cons
- Requires CustomBatteries as a dependency, so you'll need to grab that first.
- Only adds two items—if you're looking for a full battery overhaul, this is just a small piece.
- No screenshots or detailed instructions in the description, so you're on your own for setup.
For Subnautica players who want a practical early-game power boost without breaking progression. If you're tired of constantly swapping batteries in your Seamoth or tools, this is a nice quality-of-life add. Skip if you want a complete battery expansion or don't want to deal with extra dependencies.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have BepInEx installed and CustomBatteries loaded before adding this mod.
- Craft the Lithium Battery at Ramune's Workbench—it's a separate station, not the standard fabricator.
- After unlocking Ion Battery tech, use the upgrade recipe to convert your Lithium items instead of crafting new ones.
