Uptime is heavily influenced by a lot of factors, such as how often players are using the prop, game mode, or how often data is sent to the Ares Alpha servers. The above estimations are made by using a 5-minute server refresh in two teams Domination Mode.

If you want to extend the life of the prop, you can use an external battery power bank. Place the power bank inside the prop and use a USB-A to USB-C cable.

Only replace the built-in batteries if they are damaged!

To extend the life of props in the game, place inside of the box a power bank (see the above tip).

If you replace the batteries, replace them only with new batteries. New batteries should be at least 3000mA, same manufacturer and same model. All new batteries must be fully charged before installation. Use an external Li-Ion charger to fully charge them.
