    hello everyone i want to try to make a lithium battery meter. i tried using prop tool(or using the !set ctype from console) at first but putting any number will instead result in the element from the generic id system , other suggested methods were as suggested from discord, the spectrometry (analyzing the bounced photons from lith) of lithium but that's too detailed and also I don't know both the default and charged spectrum 

    so anyone having idea of how to measure the stored charge in a lithium battery?

     The battery meter thing works only in snapshots or Cracker1000's Mod (or maybe jacob's mod too but not sure).

    Here's a save id that demonstrates the charge detection mechanism very briefly

    I plan to make a detailed save explaining this and other changes later on when v97.0 gets released.

     

    Also, you can this save as a workaround for now if your goal is to prevent it from exploding <save id deleted, private not to be shared in public>

     

    So you are limited with these two saves for now. Feel free to ask for help or anything tho.

    EDIT: as advice from discord the mechanism required to use cracker's mod but I only intend for vanilla usage so I can't measure the capacity of lithium yet

    you might be able to use a spark counter to count out the amounts of spark entering (times 4) and count out the amounts of spark exiting, to make a fairly accurate lithium spark detector
