Revision 3

Overview

Solid-State Battery is an advanced energy component in Starsand Island, produced at the Energy Converter. It powers specialized late-game equipment rather than appearing in ordinary recipes. The Energy Converter is unlocked through advanced Crafter progression, and its blueprint is purchased from the General Store. Alongside the Mini Reactor and Perpetual Reactor, the Solid-State Battery is one of the three power parts the converter can produce.

Recipe

Solid-State Battery is crafted at the Energy Converter using the following materials:

Radiant Crystal is the rare ingredient here, found through mining and Moonlit Forest exploration. Tin Ingots come from smelting tin ore at the Furnace, and Iron Sheets are cut from iron at the Cutter, so both supporting materials are straightforward to mass-produce once your metalworking chain is set up.

Uses

The Solid-State Battery's main role is powering the Mega Feeder, an upgraded ranch machine that converts ordinary animal feed into its Mega version. Mega feed boosts the output of your livestock, so the Solid-State Battery is effectively the gate between a basic ranch loop and a high-yield automated one. Keep at least one battery in reserve when you plan to scale up animal production.

Tips

• Prioritize a Radiant Crystal gathering trip before building the Mega Feeder; the crystal is the only scarce part of the recipe.

• Pre-stock Tin Ingots and Iron Sheets so the Energy Converter can output batteries in batches.

• The Mega Feeder pays for itself quickly on a large ranch, so the one-time battery cost is well worth it once you keep several animal species.

• If you are also upgrading processing stations, plan your Energy Converter runs to cover both Solid-State Batteries and Mini Reactors in one sitting.
