That was a great video, Cap00! I think you explained it well, and kudos to you for being considerate of those who haven't had the chance to play this in a long time. Well done! 👍👍👍

[Ter-Lee]

"Watt" a good tutorial. Thanks. I'm still shocked I get to finally play with all these features on console.

[Arjunvandemataram]

As someone that flippin LOVES 7 days to die and has never dipped the toes into electronics, this tutorial was masterclass my brother !!! Thank you so very much for this !! Now a whole new world of what I can do in 7 days opens up to me 😁 Thank you 🙏

As a console player that’s FINALLY got access to the new 7DTD. This is a god send to help understand all the new mechanics. Thank you. This makes alpha 15 look primitive.

[lennchadful]

i have watched 7DTD content for years. all of a sudden all sorts or people come out of the woodwork to do "tutorials" and "tips" videos. Capp is an OG. keep it going brother

[Skitzobunnie]

Wanted to point out a quick but critical correction. The battery bank will charge the batteries even if items down the line are drawing power as long as the parent power source has an additional 5w of power available for the battery bank to draw beyond it's other power requirements. You can see this in action at 13:35 when you turn the generator back on and the power draw is 56w instead of the 51w it takes to power the lights. Wouldn't want people to think they have to shut off everything to recharge their batteries when all they need is to have sufficient excess power from the parent power source.

This is the only "how to" video I have seen on this game that was nice to follow. I've seen other ones that did things so fast I couldn't follow or understand at all. I don't understand why someone would ever make a tutorial that already figured people were already ninjas or something. I haven't even bought this game yet, and I enjoyed this. Nice work.

Almost 130k views and only 4k likes??? Come on people ! We are better then this . I know this video showed all of us at least 1 thing we didn't know prior to watching .... thanks a lot buddy!! As someone who never used electricity in this game before . You just helped me setup a death corridor for horde night. Awesome video !

[Kweenofmeen]

Thanks, Capp! Long time player, but haven't used electricity much because I didn't understand how it all worked. This has helped alot. You provide a wonderful service. ❤

[joelvanallen]

Fantastic explanation! Genuinely helpful to someone returning to a game that has changed MASSIVELY since they last played!

[zedinator]

Capp doing a public service announcement. Well done Capp and it is exactly what anyone new to thid needs.

Only 1 thing to say and then 1 add on fact you missed. This is a great video, awesome job my dude. I learned something here. I really had not played with timer relays at all, so thanks for that. I found that when you have the parent generator (gas) then to a battery bank and then to the load. If the generator runs out of gas and the batteries run low on charge. All you need to do is refill the generator and turn it on it will have an extra 4 or five watt load on it. It will recharge the batteries even when the load is still applied. It’s very slow though, but as long as the generator stays on, all of the batteries will fully recharge with the load still on. Thank you for your hard work on a great video.

I've been playing quite a while ... and I've needed this tutorial for ages. Thanks! The only thing I'd add is to be careful daisy chaining electric fences ... if one fails, every fence attached to it will fail. I use a relay so each (or many) get power directly from the power source.

[Nicara_V]

Even after 2800+ hours I learned something new.. Gonna try it out.

[jeffreyestahl]

2 things I always wanted TFP to add: 1) A day timer on the time relay, so you could build systems that only kicked on 1 day a week for example. This would allow for some more complicated traps in bases by combining delays and settings. 2) A negation switch or setting for trigger plates, so stepping on one would turn OFF the electricity. Another way to achieve that would be a negation relay of some kind. This would allow some more advanced logic into our in game devices.

Finally, a trick I like to use in my bases is to use a sledge to vault the Zs INTO a blade trap set in a position along the ballistic arc from the sledge position. It's kind of fun to listen on hordes nights, "Bonk! Shick shick shick shick!" Then, if you're being really nasty, have the Zs drop into a trench covered by an electric fence to pin them in place with pressure plates triggering shotgun turrets behind them. Muahahaha!! Not completely AFK, but close, though one can go through a lot of shells on particularly busy horde nights. (remember shotguns in game only have an effective range of 4 blocks now; anything outside that, you might as well be throwing spitwads)

I've been playing 7dtd for a couple years but I've never bothered with electricity... until now. Thanks, this video did an excellent job of explaining everything.

[boomboxmartian]

Capp, I originally started following you when you were doing all the testing videos, wayyy back when in 7dtd. They were my favorite.
Now that im gonna be playing what youre playing, I'd gladly watch some more tutorials or how-to's from you. I saw this vid and got quite excited.. cuz i honestly dont know much about electricity. So thanks!

[RichardRitenour]

A great service you're doing Capp! Very comprehensive! Pass that knowledge on!!

[MisguidedMiscreant]

I havent finished the video yet but I wanna say awesome guide. I am coming from old console so I have never played a version of 7 days with electricity and I am finally getting to putting in electric fences and blade traps, knew I needed a guide and I know GNS referenced you had a guide up so I made my way over to your channel finally. I can see why he learns a lot from and references your work so often, keep up the great work, you got another subscriber!

[DlaSavageGamer]

Amazing video. I was overwhelmed just thinking about learning to use these features and you explained everything in a manner that made it easy to understand. Thank you!
