So earlier I tried to purify 126-128 unit’s of water in a metal tank, but I was informed that I couldn’t do so because the amount to be purified exceeded the water purifier’s battery capacity, but the thing is it’s attached to a modified APC with lots of solar panels and car/truck/storage batteries. The energy gauge is at 37% in 3 truck batteries, 9 storage batteries, and 2 car batteries. I’m pretty sure that’s more than enough to purify that amount.
The exact message I got was: “You don’t have enough charges in your purifier to purify all of the water.”
Is this normal? If it is I guess I could pour the water into another container then purify it.

Sorry about that, when I made the kitchen buddy I just reused code from the hotplate. I only set it to give 100 charges because that’s all a water purifier will normally hold, and I was afraid if I went over that it would break something. I’m not a very good coder, so figuring out something more complex (like channeling the water to the vehicle’s tank) was beyond me, although that was something that I had wanted to do.
On a related note, do people like the name FOODCO kitchen buddy? I just sort of made it up as a placeholder thinking I would come up with something better, but I sort of forgot.
