While you have a piece of gear powered by batteries equipped, in the top-left corner, above your stamina and health indicators, you will see a yellow, curved bar and a battery symbol above it. The more you use your gadgets, the more you drain their power, so you should try and be more conservative with this resource, especially if your ship is far away.

If we are talking about flashlight usage, you shouldn’t use it unless necessary. Even in the darkest of hallways, you can quickly scan the hallway within a second, confirm that no dangers are looming from ceiling, floor, or walls, and ensure that it’s safe to walk for about half a dozen steps without falling through a hole to your death. When walking in groups, you can take turns using the flashlight and distribute the power consumption burden on multiple players. Make sure to recharge when you return to the ship to dump scrap.
