Lower tier batteries have a very low charge level when slotted into armor, and it the first three tiers are inconsistent compared to the charge of the 4th.
Construction Bots power consumption rate (at my current tech level)
Mk1 - 45kW
Mk2 - 62kW
Mk3 - 71kW
Mk4 (can't see - tooltip too long)
For 1 mk2 roboport (25 robots) each battery tile provides the following operation time for a full flight of the same tier robots:
Mk1 - 8 seconds
Mk2 - 12 seconds
Mk3 - 33 seconds (minimum of 99 seconds per battery)
Mk4 - Unsure, but if bot power draw scales linearly, 1.3 hours (minimum of 5.2 hours per battery)
In my opinion, Mk1 and Mk2 are barely usable, especially since they have the fewest available slots with heavy and modular armor. Mk3 seems reasonable, but could probably be scaled up slightly. Mk4s operating time is comically large.
