Quadruples the amount of power stored in all batteries.

This mod increases the amount of charge batteries (9v and vehicle batteries) spawn with by 4x. Now your NVGs, megaphones, and even stationary radios and backpack radios will all last much longer than before. If you like this mod, check out UsefulAxes which does the same thing UsefulBatteries does for batteries, but for axes, blades, and whetstones instead (it increases the amount of wood dropped from chopping down trees too!).
