I don't know if this is a real thing or a 3D model or a drawing, but if this actually exists, I don't care what it does, I need it OwO

Somehow, this image only seems to exist in posts with the same text, across multiple platforms. Lets hope its not a render created for this post. That would be absurd, and not in a fun way.

My disappointment is immeasurable and my day is ruined :c

Pretty sure most protos require much more juice than is supplied by regular USB A or even USB C with power delivery.

240watt isn’t enough?? Hungry bastards

[–] Draconic_NEO@pawb.social 4 points 6 months ago (1 children)

Yeah they are very power hungry, usually 24 killowatts is what they'll suck down at max on AC power at least if it's available (it isn't always), if they can't get up to that they'll still charge at lower power but it just takes much longer.

Fuckin protogens using more power than my electric stovetop and microwave combined. What are they doing in that body of theirs???

Mostly charging up their battery cells, those batteries are usually very high capacity.

Batteries are merely vessels for energy, this does not answer the question of its final purpose!

[–] Draconic_NEO@pawb.social 2 points 6 months ago

Usually to run their visor, their cybernetic systems (some of which are critical support systems that keep them alive), if they have synthetic/mechanical limbs they power those too and are the primary source for movement. Some protos have x86 CPUs and high end GPUs in their visor and for them the batteries run those as well.
