UPS conversion mod is obsolete. You can put one of the new battery cells in a recharging station, with or without it being in a tool.

UPS Conversion Mod is just break by the battery update and not obsoleted.

One of the main usage of ups conversion is to make tools run on standard battery to able to directly power by UPS/ Bionic power with UPS upgrade, the new battery system just annoy this function of the mod.

Item install with ups conversion mod before the battery update now functioning in a strange way, it will drain its own battery first, when its own battery is out it will start draining UPS/Bionic power until it is off, And if the item is turn off, it won't turn on again until it is recharge even with a UPS.

Unload a battery to recharge is good but it can't/shouldn't replace the direct supply function. And outright remove everything relay to the mod seem too early, it is better trying to fix it or at least add something to replace the function of the mod first.

Also using welding rig and kitchen unit directly with "e" says they have 0 charge, while I have more than 250K stored in my vehicle bateries.
And I just made me a feromagnetic rail rifle and the UPS just wont recharge, so I cant use it.

This is a completely different problem (that I already have a PR submitted for).
