Thread: Droid Battery Questions
I have a few questions about Droid batteries:
1. Is there a difference in quality from one battery to another?
2. How long does a typical charge last for a Probot droid? How many charges per battery? It seems like my Probot needs to be recharged about every 15 minutes.
Is that typical?
3. What is the typical price for a battery? I've been getting them for 50cr each from the bazaar on the Tempest server. Can I get them cheaper in bulk?
Thanks in advance.
- no
- yes, that's right 15 minutes, welcome to the world of DEs
- won't be easy to beat 50c each

1) Yes. Batteries come in 1, 2, 3, & 4 charge varieties.
2) Slightly under 30 minutes is the charge time for a droid. It only takes 1 charge from a battery for the droid to function for the 30ish minute time limit.
3) Depending on how many charges the battery is 50 credits can be a decent price, for 1 charge, to a down right steal, for 4 charges. Your best bet is to find someone that offers 4 charge batteries by the crate. I've seen them range from 3k to 7k per crate, which would give you 100 chrages,
difference in quality not quantity of charges, I took that to mean duration of the charge, ie, can experimentation make a charge last longer....
no
