Amazing vid, up till about 4 hours ago, I've never touched electricity thinking its too complicated and not worth the time. Your vid now made it mandatory for my bases to have electricity in them! lol thanks man
Another cool thing my group managed to do with the Receiver and Transmitter was to hook them up to sam turrets and whenever you leave the base on a heli, you click the button and it turns off the sam turrets for about one minute before they power back up and the same for when you are flying back to the base.
This has been re-uploaded due to me accidentally deleting the video like an idiot.... Sorry about that, but I hope you enjoy it if you've not seen it yet! Remember to join my Discord and follow me on Twitter and Instagram to see what I'm up to :-)
This video got me super invested into Rust Electricity and I'm loving it! I figured out why you said the pass-through for the siren lights don't work at 6:58 in the video. It's not bugged. Its because the HBHF Sensor can only output one electricity (Regardless of how much is coming in) so it can only turn on one light with its output. If you connect enough power to a AND switch with the power out of the HBHF sensor then enough power can pass through to light up however many alarms you have set up.
@@samloveland8798 this is a really good tip! its bugged me why they didnt let you power whatever you needed through one sensor but at least theres a way around it
Hi, I have 4 turrets in base and 3 large solar panels, I made 3 medium batteries in series I mean for buffering but the turets are just turning on and off constantly, is that cuz of batery setup ?
@@CristuMetin2 Turrets only use 10 power. Medium batteries output 50 meaning you should easily be able to power these turrets with 1 medium battery. Try linking the 3 solar panels into 1 battery. The main problem is at night the battery could completely drain.
the HBHF sensor is not a bug, it returns a binary response, 0 = no, 1 = yes - so you have to configure a OR switch to pass through the power you require to your activated objects.
Thank you for stopping on by to take a look, its hard to get your head around to start with but before you know it you will use pretty much the same circuits over and over. You might even find ways to improve them too!
to the compound players, if u use the door controll function with a autoturrent inside ur base, its really helpful, because raiders cant shoot out the autoturrent before jumping in, and as soon as somebody enter the compound every thing opens. Had alot of fun with that, defended 6 online raids with that, and lasted to the end of the wipe
If you take the single power output from the Sensor into one input of a AND Switch and then take a branch with say 10 power into the other input of the AND switch, then when the sensor is activated it will allow the highest (being 10) input to pass through.
First time working with electric stuff on Rust; this is an amazing guide and has allowed me to more easily understand other tutorials like setting up Auto Turrets, etc. Thank you so much!!
Now, this has earned my like. Thank you for the video. It was really simple to grasp and made what would have probably taken me hours of trial and error to figure out on my own, was reduced down to a nice 15 minutes video. Thank you again.
Amazing vid, up till about 4 hours ago, I've never touched electricity thinking its too complicated and not worth the time. Your vid now made it mandatory for my bases to have electricity in them!
I think most people just want to set up turrets and lights. The problem is having the right components. I have a setup that uses a blocker, but I spent 5 hours looking for one today. Since my knowledge of electricity only allows me to use a certain set of components, I couldn't set up turrets till I found the missing electrical piece. I would love to see a guide on setting up turrets using medium/large battery, with/without a switch, with/without electrical branch, or blocker, or splitter. There's so many combinations that knowing a setup with the components that you have at that time is the biggest advantage.
thats the worst thing about putting what you learn into practise... actually finding the parts you need! You've got some good ideas, ill put a few into practise and see what we get out of it :-) Really appreciate the comment!
There are a few setups that can use a Blocker or an XOR or an OR switch, depending on how you configure it..most commonly for automatic lights in the evening. It's worth learning all of them so you can setup whatever you have the BPs for. Otherwise...research every T1 BP you have in your base and then start doing experiments.
Thanks for the help mate, I've always thought the electricity aspect of the game being very interesting and cool, but it always seemed to complicated. Now I understand. I did the turret trap with the sensor and I killed like 5 guys lmao
The sensor will run as many warning things as there are people there. If you wire two lights and a speaker in sequence it will light the lights up for one or two people then alarm for three or more.
Great video man, a lot easier to understand than the others I've seen, actually shows what each item does and gives some examples on what to do with them.
Also good to remember batteries will maintain charge when picked up. Example: so you can charge batteries above ground and bring them to your cave base Live the videos mate
pretty sure electricity is coming to console tomorrow so decided it'd be a good idea to find out how it works thought it would be complicated but its pretty easy thanks for the tutorial
I use the solar panel directly into a branch with the set output split into the side input on a blocker and then the extra from the branch directly to the battery, battery output to blocker input, it allows for 10 full power out to the lights and automatically switches on when the solar panels don't have power and off when they do.
You can power both speaker and lamp if you set the HBHF sensor into one AND Switch instead of directly to Speaker/lamp. Then use the other input on the AND switch from battery/turbine. "AND Switch A logic gate that allows eletrical passthrough if BOTH inputs receives power, passthrough amount is the greater of either power source"
As a new player I couldn't figure out what these things were for on the tech 1 tree. Seemed "useless". That auto door open thing is a game changer for a boat base. No more awkward bumping the door, walking forward to open the garage, then remounting to drive the boat in, and then running back to close the garage all while praying no one's watching. I figure now I can open it up from a bit out, ram the boat in, and hop out mashing the trigger again. Ez pz.
No problem 👍 Its a huuuuuge learning curve. When new players come into games late, its a lot to take in, especially with the amount of new items and how they're supposed to work
It may be a little late, but you can use the HBHF sensor with more stuff. If you connect its output and your power source with an AND-Switch. When the sensor is activated, it sends current to the AND switch, which now receives power on its two inputs and therefore lets power through.
haha glad i could help... they're only obvious when you know what they do... i didn't know that the RAND switch stands for 'random' until a little while back!
Finnaly you explained which part does what now I can have my camera working and have a swich for the lights I still don't like the branch thingy but everything else works Now I have a semi good base lol
appreciate the comment, thank you.... I hate videos that waffle on for 10 minutes before the tutorials actually start. I don't want to be one of those youtubers.
7:30 - you can’t connect the output of the sensor to multiple devices because the sensor only emits one power and is only enough to power the branch. If you want to run multiple devices, run the output of the sensor into the side of a blocker and run more devices off the blocker.
nah nah nah this guy i literally never comment cuz this is my main account with my real name but this video is godly i understood everything and it was really well put together.
Run the output of the HBS sensor to an AND gate with your desired power output on the other input. When the sensor triggers the AND gate will activate and pass through the power. You can then use a splitter or branch to connect a speaker and light for example.
Oh I didn’t know they changed the charge and recharge at the same time ahhaah here I spent last night running around trying to find logic gates for a simple light set up ahaah
imagine he responds over 14 months later lol and thanks a lot for this video i needed it lol i usually play as a large group but recently we kicked our builder from the group so i have to build the bases until we get a new builder lol
@@AniCodYT we have cars on server where i play and sometimes im lazy for geting out of car so ill try hook up garage doors with trasmitor..or sensor if it can be set to unlock only on yourself
Great video! I'd love more in depth electrical stuff. Like maybe a trap base with tesla coils and the doors are always open.. and when someone walks in, the doors automatically close and the coils automatically kill the person.
Thank you for this video. I've been trying to learn Electrical Branches which still confuse me. I want to power 3 water pumps, 2 water purifiers, and 15 lights. I have two wind turbines and two large batteries. I've run the two turbines into a "combiner" and run the output into one larger battery and have run the larger battery output into the other large battery. From there I've sent it into a splitter. Its at this point I know I need branches and I get confused lol
4th Electricity video I've watched. 1st I've actually understood. Great beginner tutorial.
Appreciate the comment! means more than you think! :-)
No kidding I actually understand it now great job
To be fair, it was a lot more complicated before, you couldnt recharge a battery in use
Lmao me too

it’s 9/11/23 still helped me till this day
After not playing for many years. and being a web browser rust player and little when the "newest" version came out it helped a lot thanks

at least you learned something new... thats all im after :-)
Thanks. This was the easiest to understand electrician video I have seen. THANK YOU MICHEAL CAINE!!!!
haha, brilliant.. Glad it helped :-)
Still the best video on this topic. Not sure why but other videos did not have me grasping the basics like this one did.
nah i’ve watched so many videos nun actually explaining but yours literally helped sm tyty
GREAT TUTORIAL I learned a lot from this and defended a raid against people over team limit.
Not a bad tutorial but it’s definitely good for anyone doing basic electricity but it won’t help you with wiring clan bases
Great video man, a lot easier to understand than the others I've seen, actually shows what each item does and gives some examples on what to do with them.
