Suggestion: Mobile charger accepts redstone [Not Approved]

1st Official Post

    Currently the mobile charger only works with batteries to charge tools. It would be really useful if it would also accept redstone dust to charge a tool/battery. That way I do not need to carry extra batteries with me, I can just use the redstone I found underground while using my drill to power it.

    Bat pack works well for that, it's 6 batteries in one, and with two of those, you can pretty much fill inventory with full ores and any other goodies, but good idea

    I remember reading in one of the IC tutorials that you could use redstone to power a machne or device, but it didn't provide much power.


    TreeFarmer is right though, I crafted two Bat-Packs that I take with me and I always run out of inventory space before I run out of power. Having a solar panel setup with a couple of MFE's will give you a renewable resource for charging packs instead of using your redstone. Just remember if you're in a snow biome to clear the snow off the solar panels or they'll stop working!

    It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than open your mouth and remove all doubt
