Solar Generator

The Solar Generator harnesses sunlight to create power.

While active, it will output 1200 J/sec (60 J/t) through the bottom of the panel base (see sample installation, below). It has a small 96 kJ internal power buffer, but since this will deplete quickly when the sun goes down, it is advisable to use the Solar Generator to charge one or more Energy Cubes. This Solar Generator's low output limits its usefulness, but that isn't the case with its large cousin, the Advanced Solar Generator.
