I'm not aware of any other mods that this'll conflict with.
This can safely be added to a savegame, but there will be issues if you try to remove this mod while your save has batteries from this mod; deconstruct those batteries before removing this.
[h1][b]Overview[/b][/h1]
Adds two new battery types to the game which are more specialized, but they also have their downsides to remain balanced. These batteries are therefore by no means straight upgrades; they serve more as sidesteps since they also fall off the capacity:efficiency curve when compared to the vanilla battery.
These new batteries must be unlocked by researching Advanced Batteries, which in turn requires Batteries and Microelectronics Basics to be researched.
Let's get into the basics for each battery type this mod adds, along with the vanilla battery:

As is standard with my mods: you may include this mod in a mod pack, and you may derive from this, but please inform me if you're doing so either through here or Ludeon Forums, and give credit where credit's due.
