What's the best portable charging system?

[Dennis™]

I have a decently large geocorp machine and even with 8 solar panels and 8 wireless charges it still takes about 5 minutes to charge so i wanted to know what the best way to charge it was...

Go bigger. Get lots of batteries and lots more chargers and lots more generators. I generally aim for 12 gso and 4 geocorp chargers on my charging stations, supported by huge amounts of solar gens and preferably a steam generator

According to you what would be the best number of each machine/charger etc.

As many as you have... I place every battery, every solar panel, and every charger on a base. Sometimes even a geothermal.

What the dude above me said, There is no optimal grouping as far as i'm aware, adding more in almost every sytem just makes it go faster.

thing is i dont have a base i just have my lonely tech and i kinda wanna keep it that way until i find a super cool place or something like that to live at so i dont have infinite space at the moment thats why i said portable :)

What i do:
1. Have a SCU planted somewhere, so I can access my inventory everywhere.
2. Place ALOT of solar panels from your inventory.
3. Place alot of chargers on the solar panels.
4. Place a SCU beside it.
5. When your fully charged, just remove the base again and place the SCU on your tech.

Yeah then what Zargn said. 2 SCUs. One planted somewhere and one that you take with you on your tech. One thing i have noticed is that solar panels on their own dont seem to transfer to wireless chargers at the rate that they actually produce power, so i use a battery or two (one geocorp battery will suffice) as well.

You don't actually need 2 SCU's. One on your tech will suffice and you can simply plant it when you need access to your block inventory to pull the solar panels out. However if your SCU is destroyed because another tech snuck up on you while you were charging, then you will have to find a trading post to buy another SCU before you can charge again. With 2 SCUs you can leave a terminal in your inventory and always have access to it if you need to buy another SCU, or even more solar panels and chargers if they get destroyed by a marauding tech.

make a square shape (bigger tech bgger square) and simply place gso wireless's?.. arround the square.

4 giant techs with huge amout of batteries

[NightbladeGreyswandir]

Put row of solar pannels and put wirless on both sides available. I place solar pannels along all length of my tech... sometimes more than 30 solar pannel blocks.

Thx for all the tips guy's i'll give em all a go.

i lust put on a few furnaces on my tech i can sell some things and burn the rest....shure its big but whatever

[ReApEr X1]

If you can use the Venture wireless charger they work faster, but have a shorter range.
Have a good one [8D)

Furnaces have always been my jam. All it takes is like two furnaces and a pickup pad. When batteries get low chop some trees. I get in the habit of just always having a stock of wood to burn at all times.
