Tips for faster Industrial Charger farming
- Prioritize industrial and electrical zones; avoid residential areas
- Run light to extract quickly after finding one — they’re moderately heavy

- Farm during low server population hours to avoid contested loot
- Equip a scanner drone to highlight electrical loot crates faster
Always check secondary maintenance rooms—they have a higher power item spawn rate
