Prototech blocks are end-game blocks that were introduced in release 205. The Prototech Battery is similar to a Battery, but it has 90% charge efficiency.

Usage

For usage details, see Battery. The difference to a standard battery is that, if it gets charged by transferring power from another battery, it has 90% efficiency instead of 80%.

Power

The LG Prototech Battery stores 6 times more, recharges twice as fast, and has four times the output bandwidth.

The SG Prototech Battery stores twice as much and recharges twice as fast, but it has a lower output bandwidth than the SG standard battery.

Construction

The Prototech Battery can be built on large grid and small grid.
