100 use battery crate for 4k? Blimey. You'll sell a lot of those but you'll be doing yourself out of money for sure.

In order to use a factory you need to have a spare lot (to place it), a schematic (produced in a normal crafting session but select schematic at the end rather than prototype) and enough resources to make the number of items you want to produce. NB : you will need to use the exact same resources you used in creating the scematic to make your factory run.To run your factory you will need to have power and be able to pay maintenance. When your factory isn't running you will only need to keep up with the maintenance.
AAANNDD... free extra storage, too! If you don't plan to immediately use or sell what the factory made, leave it in the output hopper for the moment. The input and output hoppers of a factory each hold 100 items. For the output hopper, that's 100 crates, each holding 10 or 25 or 50 items.

Thx for the advices...

I've been told that one factory is the same as another. Quality resources and experimentation don't affect them from what I've been told.
If you're on Tarquinas I should be able to get you set up. My Alt is a starting Archy and can make them.

BTW, you'll want an equipment factory. You'll need to use your Weapon/Droid crafting tool next to Weapon/Droid crafting station to make the schematics. If you use a Generic tool, you won't be able to make a schematic.

I'm a master doc and while I'm buffing, I find it inconvienient to keep feeding the droid batteries manually. I can take brandy with a macro, I can take bivoli with a macro set to duration, and I can even use a buff macro independantly of entering the commands for each customer. But I CANNOT figure out how to feed the droid batteries with commands to set up a duration based macro while I am buffing.
Anyone know how to do this?

It's not possible to recharge a droid via macro.

Havethe old batteries we have already purchased been upgraded, or is it just the new stock?

There is nothing different about the batteries themselves. all they do is recharge a droid to 100%. The change is in the power consumption rate for all droids, leading to an effective quadrupling of battery life. Old Batteries, new batteries, its all the same.

I am wondering if any other doctors are having this problem with their droid batteries...
I charge up my droid and while I'm buffing I keep checking it to make sure it doesn't die on me.... It'll go down from 100% to 75% and even if I keep examining it, it stays at 75%..... It won't change until I get the message (you must be at a hospital, campsite to do that).... So is it me, or is this happening to everyone else too?
