Thread: How much Wind Energy is required to run a harvester?
I've got my wind collector on a nice 71% spot and I want to share it with a friend. How much do you need to power a harvester per day. This should be enough energy for 2 harvesters right? Also the maintenace amount was like 30. What does that work out to per day. I put 2000cr into it and it was good for over a day. I'm hoping to sell any excess wind energy.
Oh, and to answer the question you put in the topic, I have1 personal mineral harvester, and it takes 15 credits and 25 power per half hour, so 30 credits and 50 power to run it for an hour. It seems to run into the negatives power-wise (it kept running after it ran out of power, it was at around -50 when I refilled it) and didn't seem to lose any condition, so I don't know if it will just use its reserves then some internal amount, or if it's broken... but when I refilled it, it payed the negative debt first (I put in 1000 power, and it brought it up to 950 in the reserve... all rounded a little)
