The '''Z-4K Rechargeable Battery Bank''' is a [[battery]] that stores 4000 units of [[Electric charge|electrical charge]] for a spacecraft. It stores 40 times the charge of the [[Z-100 Rechargeable Battery Pack]], and has 40 times the mass. It can be used as a structural element, and fits in a [[Radial size|size-2]] stack.

== Product description ==
It can be used as a structural element (unlike the radial batteries), and the round shape and attachment nodes make it fit better into some rocket designs.
 
 
It has the same mass ratio to electric charge as the [[Z-100 Rechargeable Battery Pack|Z-100]] and [[Z-400 Rechargeable Battery|Z400]] batteries, so using it can reduce part count and drag.
