Wind Turbine Power Guide | Height, Obstruction, & How to Max a Large Battery in Rust
Ойындар
Wind turbine power output versus height doesn't entirely work the way you think they do. There are a few sneaky things you need to be aware of if you want to fully optimize your electricity in Rust including how turbines actually generate power and how they can be blocked.
______________
IMPORTANT NOTE: I tested with slightly raised foundations, so you actually want about 12.5 foundations minimum to sustain a large battery, not 12. But I still recommend 13+ so it can reasonably charge.

Finally a coherent, concise, useful video about turbines, answering pretty much all my questions.
I have 1.5k hours in rust, but still learn in almost every video something new. The videos are amazing and straight to the point. You earned more views for that.
Have been getting you in my reccomended and have been loving your videos. Keep up the work and your going to blow up soon!
Randomly got recommended your videos. Don’t even play rust anymore but this is high quality content.
solid data, thorough, soothing.
Men clean vid ! I have 5k hour in rust im like the know it all in my grp and im still learning with you ! Great job sir!
Make a 1x1 with a triangle on it. build wallframes 8 floors high, you place the windmill on the single wallframe for low upkeep. And add 2 solar, then you can run 9 turrets easy :) at a upkeep cost thats like 310 metal frag's with 2 garage doors.
Very well put!
I’ m happy I found your Chanel since it helps a lot understand how certain items work how to do / build certain things just so good I love it

i'll change the bunker and i'll try to make it more compact and all seen other people videos and i saw some put turrets in each floor of the farm :) i'll try to put a 1x2 bunker than the farms on top
All these facts got me winded, it's okay I'll just recharge.

Coming back to this gem. Sigbog, do you know how many foundations and what type you have to space out your turbines so they don't block each other?
WOW didnt know that , thank you
Hmm that's interesting to know, I always thought it was height above sea level. Thanks.
i know you do guide videos, i seen every video you have done can you do a wipe guide(good monumets to do for a good start and maby tips and tricks for early to mid game), and maby good loot spots?
9 Floors (85rWatt) is the maximum high in terms of UPKEEP per WATT if you care about upkeep cost.
I always build them 9-10 walls high, lets you run the wire to a electrical branch at the bottom in full length and will always give at least 100-120Watts of power.

i build a turbine on the 8th floor of my base all the time. sometimes i get 80 power, sometimes i get 150. i dont understand
I know it’s an older video, but would be nice to have this data at 1:22 in terms of overall output and not power in battery. Guess I can do the math. Assuming it’s 20% more than the number you’re stating?
102 power will NOT sustain a large battery at full load. If you look at the description in the crafting menu, batteries are only 80% efficient, so you'll need 100 / .8 = 125 power to sustain a large battery. I typically pair my turbine with a single solar panel to achieve this; from my testing, it is not possible to do with a turbine alone.
OK so i usually only max out my usage on a large b at like 91 or 92 because even if i have a wind turbine giving 101 or more power 90% of the time i feel like it never charges. My question for you is does that battery take in more than 100 power as they are charged? Or just like max 100 out is it max 100 in as well?
