Hey there! So i only really use AA for the mining drill and to make a spot to recharge the drill or battery wgen needed. Now i was wondering, the solar panels you can put them on energizers, but how do you use multiple? Do u use a cable? And if yes, what cable? I wanna make a charging area where i can always charge the drill and battery. And last: is there an energizer with bigger capacity then the usual one? So it will chrage the drill and battery quicker then in the normal energizer.

Thanks have a great dat :)

You can make a battery holder, looks like a short slab. You place a battery on it and it will charge.
From there you can use the energy lasers from AA to connect as many solar panels as you want.
I've used a similar setup with Ender IO panels and a 2 battery system.
One in hand to go mine and one in the charger, then swap them out when I come to drop off my spoils.

That or wait for the next update of DW's pack... He said over a week ago that EnderIO and several other long-awaited packs will be in the next version.
