In reality, think of this building and mechanic in terms of Rechargeable Batteries. For the purpose of this explanation, we will call an [[Accumulator]] a "Battery". | In reality, think of this building and mechanic in terms of Rechargeable Batteries.

In one location, you set up an Energy Exchanger in Charge mode. You feed it Empty Batteries to recharge them from the main grid, and it gives you Full Batteries. | In one location, you set up an Energy Exchanger in Charge mode.

You can then either store the Full Batteries for later, or transport them to an Energy Exchanger on another grid. Put that Energy Exchanger into Discharge mode | The batteries will behave as Batteries you set out. ***ONLY IF*** use them as the primary power source. | ||
Otherwise they will dump their charge into the grid. | |||
