best way to power turret in cave overnight?
Idk a single thing about electricity...Tried plugging a gen but apparently that lasts 2 hours. Thought of stacking 4 to last me 8 hours but Idk if that's even possible ? If not, any other way to power it through the night ?

If you look at the battery with the wire tool in hand it will show you the current estimated minutes you have left.

If you only had a single turret on a fully charge large battery it would last I think 40 hours before the charge is drained.

Build a small solar/wind battery charging shack on the surface.
Charge batteries to full up there and pick them up and move them down in cave to swap the others.

My numbers are off...
Large battery holds 24000 minutes at 100v.
You can do the math
