Lead Car Battery - best way to find?

[NobodysLaw]

Hi everyone!

I am currently searching for a lead car battery (for minibike). I already found the book and have enough other parts for it, but the battery is something I just can't find...

From this page - https://7daystodie.gamepedia.com/Sedan - I try to dismantle every car I find which is in damaged status or above, but without avail.

Also looked at Hardware stores and gas stations, still no luck.

Is there another place where it could spawn? Thanks!

I think lead car battery is nerfed in a16. I managed to find only one so far from dismantling car. But i remember i got it when dismantling the second state of the car (the state where the car is destroyed but still lootable)

With a higher Construcktion tool skill and Bad mechanik you will find tons of engines and batteries

Yeah, You should take a look at 2HandGaming Vids, He grabbed the highest Bad Mechanic perk and would get purple grade engines or purple grade batteries from cars. As well as an insane amount of gas. Also helps if you wrench is high lvl and good condition

Absolutely not nerfed. Using an average wrench i was able to find 10 in 30mins. Yeah we need a lot of them for our defenses. :D

Don't want to assume something or even accuse but which tool are you using? With a medium quality wrench I get one battery each 3 (max 4) cars without bad mechanic or something like that.

As I don't have yet steel smithing, I am forced to use the two (61/32) wrenches I found.

@All
Thank you for the Bad Mechanic trait, will try that out!

Even with those low wrenches you should get some parts but as allways, 7d2d hase one of the most trolling troll engines in terms of loot (found an 510 Auger just 30 minutes AFTER I was done with a 17 * 17 * 30 whole in the ground ... WITH MY BLOODY PICK)

Thank you all again!

After skilling Bad Mechanic to 2 - 4 cars later I got finalyl the lead car battery. I don't know if it was because of that for the increased chance or just the default RNG luck...

And now, a 10 min run back home to build the bike!
