Winona's Generator is a character-exclusive structure/item craftable only by Winona in Don't Starve Together. It is found in the Structures Filter and Survivor Items Filter and requires 1 Trusty Tape, 2 Logs, and 2 Nitre to craft. If Winona has mastered the Portability skill, she can craft the Generator as an item and dismantling already built Generators.

Usage

Generators are used to power nearby Catapults, Spotlights, and Teletransport Stations. They can also recharge dropped Handy Remotes, Portasols, and W.I.N.bots.

A full Generator has a charge of 480 (1 day). Each connected structure drains 1 charge per second. If a structure is connected to multiple Generators the drain is divided by the number of connected Generator. A Generator has a minimal drain of 0.075 charge per second. When a Generator is placed by a Winona with the Energy Saver skill, Winona's structures will not drain power when they are in sleep mode. Dismantling the Generator with the Portability skill will completely pause the energy drain until the Generator is deployed again.

A Generator can be refueled with Nitre for 50% full charge per Nitre. Winona with the mastered Nightmare Generator or Pure Horror Generator skill can also refuel it with one Nightmare Fuel or Pure Horror to fully charge it.

Skill Upgrades

Generators can receive different upgrades depending on the skills Winona has mastered:

Skill	Effect
Portability	With this skill, Winona can dismantle all her Generators to an item and also craft them as an item.
Energy-Saver	Gadgets placed by a Winona with this skill will no longer use energy from Generators while they are in sleep mode.
Greater Generator I	Generators placed by a Winona with this skill will boost their efficiency by 25%.
Greater Generator II	Generators placed by a Winona with this skill will boost their efficiency by 50%.
Greater Generator III	Generators placed by a Winona with this skill will boost their efficiency by 100%.
Nightmare Generator	Winona with this skill can fuel Generators with Nightmare Fuel.
Pure Horror Generator	Winona with this skill can fuel Generators with Pure Horror. Catapults in the range of such a Generator will deal 30 physical damage and 17 planar damage, and also +10% damage to Lunar Aligned creatures.

Trivia

• Winona's Generator, alongside her other gadgets and the Engineering Tab, was introduced in her Character Update as part of the character overhaul for Don't Starve Together.
  • With the Skill Spotlight: Wurt & Winona update, build Generators can be dismantled into an item and also be crafted as an item, making them portable (only, if Winona has mastered the Portability skill). Also, some generator-related skills were added.
• In Rhymes With Play 228 was showed the concept of a potato battery, but the game itself didn't have a potato at the time.
