If you want true unlimited electricity then i recommend building beside any laser emitting area and using laser converter for 24/7 power

[@Spike40532]

fun fact: if you use a laser power converter then just shoot at it with a laser weapon (pistol or deatomizer) then it will provide infinite power. I have 7 charging stations and two batteries all powered by 1 laser power collector with no input laser other than one tap of my laser pistol

The laser essentially is just moving power in a cycle back to the 2nd batt. Brilliant design, love it. Bout to go make one myself lol.

[@vasigo9950]

@@dennisjones7420 the only problem is that you can't cook food from a laser. I was waiting for 10 minutes and the tooltip said "uncooked". Not even "slightly cooked". Same with tesla coils. They don't work properly. Looks like they are turning on and off rapidly. But disk turrets and chopinators are fine

[@dekavi]

​@@vasigo9950yeah, same stuff... I thought it just a problem which appeared in some patch, but it just works so with the unlimited energy method. Also I found out if I place too many of the tripple plug boards connected to the infinite energy source and then the Tesla coils the construction makes really noisy sound all the time (I don't know which part especially), and I still can't fix it :( But it anyway is a game changer feature 😈

[@vasigo9950]

@@dekavi I'm not sure about the plug boards. But if you connect the coils to a battery (without the laser), they work fine. Not from a laser tho. That's weird

[@omicronfromdarkspore2652]

@@vasigo9950 There's one more problem - or rather an annoyance - that I discovered: charging stations are constantly clicking when connected to this "perpetuum mobile", but other than that, they work perfectly fine. I think it is of the same nature as tesla coils being noisy, from the previous comment. Also, if I had to guess, why it happens, I'd say it's because of the way this infinite energy source is constructed. Since with the wall plugs you ether have a constant stream of electricity or no electricity, charging stations only click when the change between night and day happens, but since the batteries are constantly refilled from the laser and they're not connected to a wall plug, the game thinks there is no constant stream of electricity, and yet the energy doesn't drain, and so everything works as if it was powered in the conventional way, but anything that makes sound when power drains, does so 🤓 Still, a cool exploit. It'll probably be fixed at some point but I think it would be a crime if devs don't make some kind of an "easter egg" out of it afterwards.
