If you want quick currency, you can sell the Industrial Batteries for 1,000 Coins.

Best Locations to Find Industrial Batteries

These batteries spawn exclusively in areas with the Industrial tag displayed on your map. The Dam Battlegrounds features three industrial buildings placed in a straight path:

• • Water Treatment Control
  • Hydroponic Dome Complex
  • Power Generation Complex

While farming in Dam Battlegrounds, make sure to check all three locations in a single run. Make sure to check the areas even if it appears looted as others may have left Industrial Batteries behind. Consider going to the Hydroponic Dome Complex first as it spawn batteries on shelves throughout the facility besides the containers. 

Besides Dam Battlegrounds, search for other locations as well to find Industrial Batteries:

Farming Tips and Strategies

Ensuring your survival matters while trying to farm Industrial Battery across the map in ARC Raiders. So, here are some tips you should consider to farm efficiently:

1. 1. Run a free loadout if you’re not confident about surviving the raid, minimizing the risk while still collecting valuable materials. 
   2. Also, equip decent gear to defend yourself against enemies and players when checking multiple locations.
   3. Check breachable containers and lockers within industrial buildings.
   4. Don’t overlook broken-down cars in the vicinity as their hoods may contain one or two batteries inside.
   5. Time your raids during special conditions such as Electromagnetic Storms, Cold Snap, or Night Raids to increase your overall loot value.
   6. Keep in mind that hatches close during Night Raids and Electromagnetic Storms, so extract via elevator or wait for the condition to pass.

Extraction and Event Usage

After securing an Industrial Battery, the extraction options depend on your resources and current raid conditions. Use a hatch if you have a key, or head to an elevator to extract the batteries. Remember, these become inaccessible during certain weather conditions.

Make sure to plan your battery extraction route accordingly. Plus, the Flickering Flame event allows you to exchange Industrial Batteries for 1,000 Merits. This serves as an alternative use beyond crafting and recycling. 

Conclusion

While Industrial Battery may be rare, they aren’t necessarily hard to obtain in ARC Raiders. You simply need to figure out its spawning point so you can easily farm these batteries. These are helpful if you’re trying to upgrade your Gear Workstation or earn quick currency!
