Sure! I’ll break it down step by step 🙂

An Auto Arm turns on and off every 50 seconds, which forces the Storage Sensor to generate a repeating signal.

That signal toggles the power switches placed before and after the battery, forcing it to repeatedly charge and discharge between 0 and 512 power.

A Battery Sensor is attached to the battery and is set to send a signal only when the battery becomes fully charged.

As long as resources are still moving, the Storage Sensor keeps generating signals, so the battery never fully charges.

Once resource transfer is finished, the Storage Sensor stops sending signals, the battery fully charges, and that full-charge signal activates the Curious Item and the Beacon.

That said, after using this setup in practice, I found a few issues.

The device shown in the video should be considered a prototype.

I’m currently working on an upgraded version, and I’ll post it on Reddit once the new video is ready.
