The single use battery is very convenient, which is it's only advantage when compared with it's rechargable counterparts. They are easy to produce and very useful, being able to stack so you can load multiple batteries into a single machine at a time. They are, however, much less efficient than the RE batteries. The reason for this is that when fuel burns in a generator, charging a RE batteries, it gives off 48,000 EU (charging 4.8 batteries per fuel), but when made into single-use batteries, it only gives off 30,000 per fuel can which means you loose 18,000 EU per can. The same applies for Bio fuel, only you loose 17,000 EU which is over half the stored energy it has, not to mention the energy it takes to make the fuel!
Using Single use batterys is more efficent than burning the coal.
Coal holds 4000 Eu making dust costs 625 Eu + 500 for the Redstone = 5125 Eu
You only have to think of whats worth more 2875 Eu and the portabiliy or 1 Cable.


These are the facts and figures, but it is up to you wether you choose convenience or efficiency convenience and invest your resources in single-use or RE batteries.

Efficiency[edit]

Using Single use batterys is more efficent than burning the coal. Coal holds 4000 Eu making dust costs 625 Eu + 500 for the Redstone = 5125 Eu You only have to think of whats worth more 2875 Eu and the portabiliy or 1 Cable.
