On first branch instead of 9 you set amount needed to power up your devices. The rest will power up your large battery. As for two batteries, I just created two circuits with two windmills, felt like the simplest solution. For example my first circuit branches out ~60 energy to turrets with the rest going to battery (- components on the way). With cut out power source fully charged large battery should last for about 7+ hours with ~60 active output.

The other two branches go directly to my furnaces/turrets/heaters/etc.

I've been trying to figure out why this feels so incorrect for like a year. I'm not sure this dude understood this circuit when he made this video, I think someone taught it to him. This makes some sense if you don't want to have to edit your branch when you need to use more power... but you're going to have to edit it when you add more power anyways, so the branch is going to be changed at some point anyways, might as well be efficient since that's the point of this. The thing breaking my brain forever now has been "why the heck is the first branch set to the maximum output of the battery?" It makes so much more sense to me to set the first branch to the amount of power my base needs. That means any power I don't need gets fed back to the battery. I also don't understand why the second branch is set to 2. It should be 1. It's not a pass-through. It just needs 1 watt to trip the blocker, that energy doesn't ever continue to the switch. Here's my run-down, I hope it helps someone, cause I've seen this video about 10 times over the years and it's never sat right with me: My base needs 19 watts -- (water purifier, two pumps, two lights) I have a medium battery that can output 50 watts. I have 3 solar panels, which gives 60 watts in the day. I take that 60 watts of that power and I branch off the 19 that I need. The rest is sent to the battery. Well, most of it. I take 1 of those extra watts and send it to the blocker to tell it that we are indeed getting enough power from the panels. If we're getting the energy we need from the solar panels, then that 1 watt will actually be there. That means the blocker will be enabled, so the battery will be blocked. So now, if the panels are supplying enough power, the battery gets blocked off, and we use our 19 watts from the panels. If the panels AREN'T supplying enough power, there's no extra energy to trip the blocker with, so the battery is able to get through the blocker, and the or switch uses it instead.

I built a similar concept on my 2nd attempt at installing lights so that they turned on when it got dark and it only took 1 branch and an OR. Not sure if it was inefficient or if those extra components were needed… The line input from 1 panels (using a root combiner) for 20 input to a branch. The branch output was the minimum 2, which went to an OR. The remaining power went to the medium battery. The battery output to the OR and the OR output to my lighting array. When both solar and battery had power the lights were off. When the sun went down the lights came on. When the sun came up, the lights turned off. Only thing I can think of is that maybe the blocker and added branch prevent the battery discharging 1 power to the OR while it was charging? But at the cost of 2 power for those 2 devices? Effectively being a worse option I guess…

The problem I see with this is that whatever power value is set on the first blocker, say 99 for a single large battery, you are now essentially throwing that power away when the battery kicks in since the OR gate will only pass through the higher battery signal. I'm not so sure that the gain in battery charge when the system is over harging offsets the loss in charge when the system switches to battery backup... In my case I'm trying to save a problem where I have almost 40 power running off a blacked into a Tesla COIL circuit, even though the 35 power into the Tesla isn't used 99% of the time. I'm trying to find a way to recycle that power and only pull it when needed. If I use a blocked it'll kill any circuits I put in line behind my Tesla. I could just put the Tesla last but I hate how unscalable that solution is.

@Senihmo3 жыл бұрын
Logically wouldn’t it matter? I mean if you hook up the panel to the battery, the system is powered by the battery and the battery is charged by the panel. Whenever the battery is full, the power is technically delivered directly through the solar panel, and whenever the panel isn’t working it’ll take the battery power. Am I missing something?
@DrGrafenberg3 жыл бұрын
Yes you are missing something. During daylight your item is being powered by the solar panel (directly) with any spare power going to the battery (topping it up), when night comes, your item is powered by the battery and the battery is losing power but when day comes around again, solar powers item AND tops up battery. So with this system your battery is always being topped up and NOT losing power by day, as the item is being powered by the solar panel. There is a subtle difference
This system reminds me of a timer because the conditions of the solar panel losing power is at night so the power will kick in.

Isn't this circuit redundant? Those small batteries can charge at twice the rate that it discharges. So if you connect a solar panel to a battery and run your stuff from the bat then it charges at 20rwm and discharges at 10rwm meaning it will stay full for the full duration of the day and only start draining at night when it isn't being charged. Thus because the battery will only start losing power when it's dark it makes the end situation exactly the same as using this circuit, just with less complication.

While this circuit is still useful and viable, using it in this exact configuration actually has you losing output power. As far as I understand it, you are charging your battery with an additional 0.4rw at the cost of losing 2rw at the battery's output. With a medium, large, or series of small batteries even, this would end up having your batteries charge faster with a relatively minimal loss.

@ramrodgames4 жыл бұрын
Your English is good bro no worries. That was my point in the video - you CAN power everything direct with the battery directly as you said if you have double the solar / wind and enough battery to get you through the night + during periods of lower power (more applicable with solar than anything). The point I'm making is you are wasting HQM because you're having to set up 2x the power and more battery capacity than you need to make sure the power supply is uninterrupted. This circuit has multiple benefits compared to just connecting everything directly: 1) It allows you to more efficiently use the power generation you have (especially solar) when it is available and then switch to battery when it is not sufficient (so you don't need to install as many panels and as big of a battery). 2) It gives you a battery backup if your solar / wind is damaged or destroyed because it makes sure that your battery is at peak charge at all times (yes you can do the same by having 2x+ solar going into a battery so that you always have extra, but that's wasteful). For example you can have 6-7 solar panels generating 120-140 power going into 1 large battery this way and instead of 10 panels. 3) You get more control over your power - with this circuit using branches (this is one reason why they are better than splitters), you can set how much of your power is going to the battery to charge it in the beginning vs. to your components. For example if you set up everything with a medium or large battery in the beginning and only need 10-20 power for a turret and some lights, you would not direct 100 power from the solar panels to your main power line. You would direct enough to power those components and send the rest to the battery to get it charged fully faster. Ultimately this circuit isn't for everyone and you do need HQM for the components and yes it uses a little bit of power. If you're only using electricity for basic stuff then this is not worth it. You'll see in future videos though that I like to build complicated circuits with multiple sensors, turrets, and advance warning systems. To do stuff like that, this circuit is absolutely necessary because you want to be able to regulate everything and it is the first step to a much larger and modular electrical system. I'll post more videos and show more of this. Thanks for your comment and let me know if I'm wrong on anything here.

These circuits were used commonly before facepunch made a large update to electricity. The game used to only allow battery charging or discharging one time, not both at once.

Does this work with medium and large battery and with more solar panels on a bigger scale ?

sry my english is not good, for what is this usefull? you can put a solar panel simply on battery, the battery output on your light. this would work same !? or not?

Because going directly through the battery wastes power. Once the battery is full, it'll just stay full and ready, where here, once it's full, it is shut off to allow the solar panels to go directly to the things that need to be powered. Also, with this, you could theoretically hook multiple batteries up without much change.

Oh, and because things that need power also hold some power, they can be overcharged using the solar panels instead of from.the battery
