Just extending this logic a little farther; If one ion cube contains the electrical equivalent of 5 kilotons of tnt, and it contains 500 units of electricity, as evidenced by the ion battery needing just one ion cube, then one unit of Subnautica electricity adds up to - wait for it - 10 tons of tnt. So that flashlight is harmless you say? No, I say! Just point it at anything and turn it on, and it will burn to a crisp incredibly fast. Bye bye Reaper Leviathan! Can't eat me if you're charcoal, can you? That repulsion cannon of yours? Capable of launching that annoying gasopod clear into the air. However, the Seamoth is the only thing that really conforms to this energy consumption, as it is reasonable to assume it moves using an EM drive, as evidenced by the databank entry for the seamoth saying it can fly in space as well as in the ocean, entirely on electricity. The EM drive produces about a micronewton of thrust per watt, so yeah. In addition, a single normal battery ingame would contain an electrical equivalent to an entire kiloton of tnt. So that thing is a really powerful bomb, if the energy is released all at once. If you find any problems in this logic, reply and offer constructive criticism.
