These supercaps are an alternative to batteries for when you need high bursts at the cost of capacity.
The values have been equally balanced across small and large ships, unlike it is the case with every other vanilla item keen released. That means that the power density [MW/m³] and energy density [MWh/m³] are the same for small and large ships. That makes input/output rate and capacity for a large 1x1x1 block 125 times higher than a small 1x1x1 block. Same goes for the material requirements.
The values that have been used for those supercaps are: - power density = 10 MW/m³ - energy density = 0.0013 MWh/m³
For comparison, the vanilla batteries do have: - power density = 0.64 MW/m³ (small blocks) and 0.256 MW/m³ (large blocks) - energy density = 0.16 MWh/m³ (small blocks) and 0.064 MWh/m³ (large blocks)

==Note==
All blocks have been balanced realistically. Thus their values dont follow the games "balance design" in terms of small and large ship comparison.

We also recommend using Darth Biomech's Accumulator mod as complementary energy source to our batteries.
