How To Get Battery Packs

Battery Packs are an item that players can get in Stardew Valley which can be used to craft a variety of items. There are a few ways to get them, the first being placing Lightning Rods around your farm, when there's a thunderstorm, there's a possibility for lightning to hit the rods and create a Battery Pack. Bear in mind that it's not definite that the lighting will hit a rod, one day after the storm, check to see if a Battery Pack has been created for you.

Another way to get them is by creating Solar Panels, after 7 sunny days they will produce a Battery Pack. You might even be able to buy them from the Traveling Cart for 1,500-2,500G and if you're really lucky they might drop when breaking crates in the Skull Cavern.

When you complete the Children's Bundle in the Community Center you'll get 3 Battery Packs as a reward.
