Devs: I'm curious about something, Gear Fuel Cells?

[inaliFTW]

What are you wanting us to do with all the gear cells enemies drop, what's intended? Or what do you folks do with them? I find, you can fill up a large chest quick. But, it becomes a nuisance. I was recycling them, now I just destroy or leave it. Maybe some way to stack them(would be huge)? Seems like it should be a decent source of money or resources. Am I missing something?

Recycle or destroy.
Recycle more though as those cells are a better fuel source than coal is.

I figured, they should totally add either stacking or a simple mechanic for that. Like, instead of picking it up, you recharge your own battery or store energy in a big battery on your backpack.

Ability to stack them inside the ship. I feel like No man's sky did the smart thing there by making ship's inventory have larger stacks.

Also managing those single slot items becomes tedious fast, plus a bunch of different medicines that do not stack, plus keycards of each color... Inventory desperately needs some help.

Maybe being able to not just stack but a way to "upgrade" them after so many in a stck. I.E. the "repaire bench" could have it where you stack 10 or so and it can convert to the next level?
