By default your suit runs on a 10,000-capacity power cell and thus can only hold 10,000 units of electricity, displayed as 100% in the status tab. You can upgrade your suit's battery by enabling interaction, then grabbing any power cell of greater capacity than your current one and using it on your ninja suit. Installing a 15,000-capacity cell will increase your power capacity to 150%, for example. | By default your suit runs on a 10,000-capacity power cell and thus can only hold 10,000 units of electricity, displayed as 100% in the status tab.
