Power & connections
Power
- Base consumption
- 0 rW
- Maximum output
- 150 rW
rW is the game's electrical power unit. Base consumption is a device characteristic; active battery drain depends on the connected circuit and device state.
Maximum generation is limited by wind conditions and the windmill's exposure.
Outputs
- Power OutElectricity
Ports retain their in-game names. Electricity carries power and control signals; industrial ports carry items, fluid ports carry liquid. Connect matching types. Unconfirmed characteristics are omitted.
