EXCELLENT VIDEO. As an electrician in rust there is an extreme drought of quality youtube videos on rust electricity. basically all of them are clickbait, filled with misinformation, inefficient, or are just low quality tutorials. This video is none of these. This video provides an excellent beginner friendly and easy to follow introduction to rustricity and great examples on basic use cases of components. This is literally one of the only rust electricity tutorials on youtube with zero misinformation. In fact I believe it is the only one I have ever seen. This is why I'm subscribed to this channel. Jfarr and shadowfrax are the best informative rust channels on the platform period.

⚠Updates & Notes⚠ - Make sure to unlock your door, otherwise, you can't connect the door to the door controller. - The HBHF sensor sends one power per detected player, not just a flat 1 power. (Comment: Nevan Nedall)

Holy shit. My friends and I just got back into playing and finally managed to get into the (successfully) raiding phase of the game, however our defenses/tech at our base is very primitive and none of us knew how the electrical side of the game works, this just blew my fucking mind how in depth this whole system goes, def gonna need to rewatch it a few times cuz the applications for this could be nuts! Thanks again

This is by far one of the most intricate and amazing tutorials I've ever seen in a game. Thanks for this, I was totally lost on electricity until I found your video. Keep up the outstanding work!

I always wanted to learn the door controller, and this was really informative.

I was surprised by how well everything is explained. Well done, now even an idiot like me is able to make whatever I want with electricity in my base

My brain cant take all of this in only 30 minutes

Just some tips: don't ever use the splitter lol, only use it if you are splitting 3 of the exact same things (like 3 auto turrets or car lifts). Everything should just use it's own electrical Branch to control the exact power you need. Also 2 batteries through one Root combiner doesn't work as you think. It actually drains both batteries equally so you normally don't ever want to do that either. You most likely would want... if one battery drains the other kicks in, but it doesn't work like that. Just have 2 separate circuits if you have more than one battery.

hey jfarr, awesome video dude! i have an idea for a next video: despawn guide. how long it takes for certain items to despawn, whether they are on ground, people, in a stash etc...

Playing solo with 75 turrets surrounded by fences and prison cell. It took me for ever to learn electric but it has saved me from big clan raids and offlines . This video is great

Bro thanks for this you are a literal GOD for making this. 🙏

I honestly never comment or like many vids. But this is by far the best tutorial I’ve ever gotten. Straight to the point, very understandable when showing your in depth demos

Bro really knows his redstone

When looking up electricity guides, I got about 5 videos deep before i found someone who was compentent enough to get this info. across well enough. These under-viewed videos are better than the most viewed. Keep it up. This guy is the Veritasium of rust.

Please, make more videos about Rust electricity, it’s very useful mechanic, but it’s pretty complicated, so not much players use it. Your video explained so much, especially switches, like RAND and memory cell

Whoever is watching this feeling like its too much work, just trust it. Electricity is such a game changer

Gotta be honest, your video guides for rust are unbelievably detailed and that's amazing. Best Rust guides by far!

finally a video that's all in 1 and not 20 different ones

you've got the best rust tutorials on yt

This is a fantastic tutorial overall, but be careful with the root combiners after the batteries - they will automatically pull 100% of the power, even if it's not needed for the circuit!

that wall of electricity looks dope

i would really like to see him make a video of all the other electrical stuff he did not talk about. he explains everything so well.

Your content help me when I started in rust

This is literally exactly what I needed. Jfarr I love you

I am a smooth brain liberal arts and comm major and this video helped me immensely to understand Rust grids-especially the animated diagrams of power flow and on/off states. You’ve earned a grateful subscriber for your efforts!

good thing I watched this. I was always under the impression that 80% efficiency meant that I can only load the batteries with 80% their max output and cap there. That solves a lot of headaches for me. Thank you!

One huge issue (bug). Root combining batteries together and drawing a load draws exactly the same load off both batteries. For instance, drawing 10 power from a single turret will draw 10 power from battery A and also 10 power from battery B, for a total of 20 power. So it's best not to use a root combiner post-battery, only pre-battery. I tested this a few months ago by root combining 16 large batteries to attempt to run a whole base. I connected a couple of turrets to the single output, thinking it would only use 20 or so power distributed equally between each battery (20 / 16 batteries). However, each battery showed 20 power usage. I need to test this again actually, as they 'may' have fixed it.

Thanks for keeping updated rust fundamentals guides even in 2022!

Great video! you should make more videos covering other electrical devices

The pressure pad doesn't require power to be used. If no power is supplied it will output 1 power when the user stands on it. Same with buttons

Huge effort from a great creator! thank you Jfarr!

now give me my graduation ceritificate 🤣

Just started playing rust a couple days ago, this guide was hella helpful ! normally I would just recycle these cause I didn’t know any better, this video is real good !

This is a truly impressive and informative video. You answered every electric question I had without me needing to ask. Well done.

Made it about half way through on my break. Can't wait to finish this video. Awesome video. I'm confident I can master power in rust with your video lol

My brain is absolutely fried listening to this and I'm an automotive electrician by trade! x'D Who knew a game could be so complex?! Reminds me of satisfactory :P Great video!

Couldn’t have asked for a better video! I have struggled for to long trying to figure out XOR,AND switch, & memory cell

jfarr your literally my hero right now, When my Partner goes to work, He gives me tasks, Today was electric. And yesterday i looked up your tutorial on farming. You make my life easy right now xD

This helpfull!..i really wanted to learn how to use the pressure plates to turn on and off... (Btw thumbmail is very creative!)

I've been looking forward to your clear concise guide to power in rust. Many thanks!

you were the channel i watched to learn rust monuments when i was new in 2020... im glad you are still doing this youtube:)

Thank you so much, I have been watching you video lately and there the best keep up the good work.

By far the best electricity guide for Rust ever made! 🔥🔌

this video is probably one of the best videos on youtube!

Great video with easy to understand explanations. Just got back into rust after a long time not playing. Very keen to play around with some funky systems. Thank you for the great content.

You know, the Rust electrical system is actually a good way to introduce yourself to programming. Not "exactly" but the fact you need to work out logic via connections mimics how computer logic works.

Thanks so much bro, this is a great help. Probably the best Rust electricity video on KZfaq

I have done the first 6 scenarios by myself. But I really needed the rest thank you so much for this amazing content

Glad i found this. Playin console Test Branch and had a weeks worth of electric trickling away and couldn't figure out why but know i know 👌👍 big thanks

Console electricity updates comes in a few weeks so gotta start learning now

It’s funny that you post better content than some of the big you tubers and still don’t have 1 million subscribers at first I thought you did

THANK YOU SO MUCH I NEEDED THIS

your videos are always very invitating and very informative, I enjoy watching them!

As an electrical engineer and gammer this game never stops to fascinate me👏👏👌

2:00 7.5 times MORE power is base value x (1+7.5) = 8.5 7.5 times the power is base value x (7.5) = 7.5 The solar panel outputs 20 max and the output of the wind generator is 150 max so it outputs 7.5 times the power, not 7.5 times MORE power. That being said, the wind generator will continue producing at night whereas the solar panel won't produce anything between sunset and sunrise. PEACE

Well done.

That blocker did such a good job of stopping the lights that the solar panel had an aneurysm and exploded 13:20

I love this tutorial I Had already know some electrical in rust but after this video I can finally make so much more interesting staf

I used this for lights on the outside of my base looks very nice couldn’t of done it without your help

Hey could you maybe do like a console guide it would be really helpful cause their are much guides on console and the thing in console are a bit different

My biggest weakness haha hopefully this video should help me out, love your older videos which have helped in the past.

Man dude i love the video it explains everything well, and very detailed my mind went crazy at 17:50 RAND Switch holy shit lol.

This is exactly the instruction i was searching for. Thanks 👍

Once, me and my duo made a entire floor of loot rooms (4 loot rooms and had way to many garage doors in that (paranoia). So I made door controllers and a switch. With a simple flick, all doors were open. Later on we started getting online and in my panic, we hid the switch under a bear rug's head. They didn't notice it and wasted another 12-15 rockets blowing in each loot room.

Fun fact. There are caves that are jsut close enough to the surface for you to be able to run solar/wind power down there through a surface power base.

You took a very daunting seeming electric system I wasn't even going to attempt to use until I found your video, now I understand everything to do and how to do it with multiple options, thanks!

Please do moree, electricity is one of the reason I bought rust, but didn't have enough scrap to research all of it 😂

You have explained all in a incredible way, thanks for the examples, great content !

Many people explaines what I felt watching this. I'll be short: well done, thank you.

Imagine you're the only one online on a server and all of a sudden you hear a random door opening and closing. Untill this day I'd think it was a ghost but didn't think it was possible to have a random door opener system to make it seem someone is online really like that one.

Brother you just earned yourself a subscription 👍

Incredibly detailed thank you

Preparing myself for the electricity update for rust console can't wait!

Both the pressure pad and the push button modules can send 1 power when activated without having to be connected to a power source. This can help with things like door controllers or toggling memory cells without needing specific power to activate.

Thank you I play on console rust and want to be ready for when we get power surge

How did not you have 1 mln subs??? Thank you for the info!

I picked the wrong day to start getting high again. great video!

As an electrician in real life i can confirm this man knows what he is talking about. Great video!

Best tutorial thanks you so much ❤️

Beginner - Player that knows how to use every electrical component. Chad -Player that doesn't use electricity because its for role players.

Thanks so much, all of your tutorials are great. Even though I have 2.5k hours I still love em.

okey so i've just watched 5 of your guides. liked all, now its a sub as well :)

Yes I needed this for so long

I hope one day i can use a rust electric diagram to get my engineer diploma, i didnt knew you can do so much with the game.

thanks this really helped i was just trying to figure out how to make a ceiling light with a switch

Been needing this 🙏

Wow the most important thing I learned was changing the wire colors. That will be so useful lol

Underrated channel, subbed

i dont play rust and this video was still entertaining either way. I hope the game is still relevant by 2024/25 for people planning to get into it in the future.

Great explanation how to build a MUX/MPX ! Well done!

Nice to meet you again jfarr

This will be very useful as the power surge update is coming to console at some point in the future

I rally need that video thanks bro❤

Really usefull video, i now know that i most likely need a memorycell to permanently closea door via 1 time presure pad activation....If only the memorycell wasnt so hard to find....

Holy crap this guide is amazing. Just what I was looking for! Got a like from me :)

great vid. it would be amazing if you made a part 2 explaining more complex circuits and items!!!

"If you plan on building within a cave, the generator is essential as it is the only way you will generate power underground" Not fully true, everytime I build in a cave, I just have a overground basis right above the building cave, with solar and wind. You can run the cable through all of up to 30 meters of impassable terrain, it has no hitbox detection preventing it from being laid. If that base is blown up, then yeah you need the generator, but I have seldomly been griefed here, and usually got enough large batteries to last the offline time.

you need more subs holyyy you are amazing

U did pretty good job. Well explained. ThumbsUp

Well done, but the way you say "Pouwha" kills me lol
