This Subnautica 2 Guide shows where to find the Power Transmitter, how to craft it, and the correct way to use it so your base receives power. The Power Transmitter is an important part of managing electricity in Subnautica 2, especially if you are using Hydroelectric Turbines or Thermal Plant for power generation. Even though the turbines generate the needed energy, that power cannot reach your base until you have a transmitter connected properly.
Power Transmitter Guide – Subnautica 2
To unlock the Power Transmitter, start from the lifepod and travel north. You need to align yourself at 15 degrees. Continue following the route until you reach the area with the Hydroelectric Turbine placed there.
Once you arrive, look near the Hydroelectric turbine itself. There will be a box or container nearby, and inside that box, you will find the Power Transmitter fragment ready to scan. The good thing is that only one scan is needed to unlock the blueprint, so the process is very quick.
After scanning it, the Power Transmitter becomes available for crafting.
Crafting the Power Transmitter
The crafting requirements for the Power Transmitter are simple and easy to collect early in the game. You only need:
- 1 Titanium
- 1 Copper
After gathering the materials, craft the transmitter and prepare to connect your power setup.
How to Use the Power Transmitter
The Power Transmitter works by carrying energy from your Hydroelectric Turbines or Thermal Plant to your base. Without it, the electricity generated by the turbines will not actually reach your base.
When placing the transmitter, positioning matters a lot. You need to place it close enough so the connection lines remain linked to the turbine. If you move it too far away, the connection disappears, and the power will stop transferring.
A good thing is to place the transmitter somewhere between your turbine and your base, where the connection lines stay active. This allows the electricity to travel properly from the power source into your base systems.
