How do I use Night Vision Goggles?

[M6Hurricane]

I have the green battery (description says it gets inserted into armor) and night vision goggles. How do I use these items?

I like to rationalize it this way: a Solar Panel consists of a large glass lense

You make lense with iron and copper?! Even if they are not glass,they should be at least transparent,like plastic(some plastic is transparent).

Glass = melted sand. The solar panels are mounted by digging a hole for the pylons, and the resulting sand (or other type of soil containing sand mixed with other stuff) is more than enough for the next panel you build.

You can't make real solar panels (in any form) with only iron and copper. You need silicon and trace materials like germanium and other stuff to dope it with. If the game were trying to be ultra-realistic, the recipe would have like 10-15 items and about as many intermediate steps. But then so would every other recipe in the game. Even the most basic item, the stone furnace, should have some kind of mortar to hold the stones together. And how many thousands (more like millions) of different components do you think are needed to build actual rocket ships? It would be ridiculously complex, and new players wouldn't be able to learn it.

Bob's Mods does a pretty good job of addressing some of these, but even there many of the recipes are much simpler than any real-life manufacturing process.

Then comes the battery storage mystery:
5 battery+2 iron=1 accu=5MJ storage.So 1 battery has 1 MJ storage.
10 battery + 5 steel=1 battery equipment=20MJ storage.So 1 battery has 2MJ storage.
I think this can only be explained by steel storing electricity.But,since we are already storing electricity with steel,why not make accumulators and battery equipments just from steel?

There's no battery-powered device that can use a battery up completely. At some point the voltage drops to where it's no longer useful. Obviously the machines in a factory need higher voltage, so a half-dead battery in an accumulator might as well be completely dead since you're only able to use the top 50% of its capacity. Suit equipment is much more advanced and can use nearly the whole thing.

This is just me coming up with some ways it might be rationalized, feel free to invent your own.
