Need a charging station block for multiple power modules

As above.
The block only needs to receive power.
If possible have 8 or 16 power cell slots.

Using a battery to charge power cells seems wasteful if you need to charge a lot of power cells.

I agree, some charger block with bigger number of slots would be great. Also I didn't get why middle sized battery block have only 1 slot. Woudn't it make more sense if there were 2???

I thought about this, but it also seems none of my ships are actually using battery? Anyone else? I'm in survival.

hey uh did you ever check out setting the block to recharge only?

Love this idea, though the way the game works now is that anything can charge while being in it's power slot? But if you draw more power than you make, it means your batteries would never charge.
So basically to make a charging station you need a separate grid with power, and only the charging dock on it. This way slotting in 16 batteries means they would always charge since there is nothing to power.

Rather than a dedicated charging station, I think it'd be better to be able to switch the current "cell holders" to a charging station mode, maybe even per slot on the big one, maybe even via a button next to the slot. This would then also change the standard interact from "put in cell with highest charge in your inventory" to "put in cell with **lowest** charge in your inventory".
If there was to be a dedicated charging station block, I would suggest to make it so that it has its own inventory where you can dump uncharged cells and it recharges them batch by batch. Later, this could maybe be automated so that, for example, you can land your ship, it automatically removes non-fully charged cells and immediately replaces them with fully charged ones.
