📋 About This Mod

Updated version 24/08/2026:



Mod fixed : Full charge and full deplete cycle.

                  No more Edit locker name. 


Changes in 2. 0

                  Recipe edited : 

                  Took notice about the coherency, 2 flavours available : simple ( one titanium ) , complex ( 1 wiring kit , 2 acid mushrooms, 2                        copper, 2 salts )

                  Both don't refer to an existing storage unit.

Customisable Bank Size: Your sweet spot is to define. As long as you have an exceeding amount of energy it will store.

                  Use this power (for the while) to cycle through a night with less devices . 

                 

                  Behaviour modified, 1 common energy pool :

                  All the energy sources fullfill the banks before fullfilling their own batteries

Now works with Solar Panels,  + Thermal plants, Bioreactors, and Nuclear Plants in bases , and Thermal Module in Cyclop.

                 To update, unbuild the existing bank. If new game , nothing particular.

                                                                                           

One of the cool features in subnautica 2 is the powerbank.

Now we have some too. 

Each power bank can hold an amount of energy you define in a json file that will be created after launch you can "daisy chain " them , not sure of the word... You can put several of them and their filling time is divided by their number. 

When all the power is out ( and it takes an eternity ) the hologram " active, turns off"

It's a bit like the mod Base batteries except all you chargers are only dedicated to charge.

L'une des fonctionnalités géniales de Subnautica 2, c'est la batterie externe (powerbank). Désormais, nous en avons aussi. Chaque batterie peut stocker une quantité definissable  dans un fichier json generé apres avoir lancer une fois le jeu . Il est possible de les « mettre en série » (ou de les coupler). Plus vous en ajoutez, plus le temps de recharge est divisé par le nombre de batteries. Lorsque toute l'énergie est épuisée (ce qui prend une éternité), l'hologramme « actif » s'éteint.

C'est un peu comme le mod  Base batteries sauf que vos chargeurs ne font que charger.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Cyclops integration is a nice touch, especially if you run the Thermal Reactor Module.
  • JSON localization means anyone can add their language without waiting for the author.

⚠️ Cons

  • Tiny mod with only 5 endorsements—might have limited testing or community feedback.
  • Model is incomplete (description cuts off), so visuals might be placeholder or unfinished.

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Place the Power Bank in your base or Cyclops and let it charge from your grid, then carry it with you for emergency power.
  • If you're using the Cyclops Thermal Reactor, the Power Bank will synergize well—charge it while near heat sources.
  • Since the mod uses JSON for translations, check the mod folder for a language file to see if your language is supported.
