This article is about batteries required to power small appliances. For batteries that power vehicles, see Car Battery.

A battery is a source of power for small household items.

Usage

Batteries are used to power the flashlight, radio, ham radio, walkie talkie and lamp on pillar.

Batteries will begin to drain when the device they're powering is on, until it eventually dies, upon which it is destroyed/consumed. When used to power a flashlight, the player can tell when the battery is getting low, as the light will begin to flicker rapidly.

Crafting

Product	Skill(s)	Ingredient 1	Ingredient 2
Battery	none	One of: Flashlight Hand Torch Rubber Duck (keep)
Flashlight	none	Flashlight (consumed)	Battery (consumed)
Hand Torch	none	Hand Torch (consumed)	Battery (consumed)
Rubber Duck	none	Rubber Duck (consumed)	Battery (consumed)

Distribution

Batteries can be found in various places throughout the world, such as in garbage cans, wooden crates, counters and many other places. They can also be found inside radios and flashlights, so long as they haven't been left on. It can also be found in very large amounts in the Egenerex Battery Factory, in the North East corner of LV.

If Zombie spawn Walkie Talkie as loot, you can take one full battery from it.
