So, what is everyone's view on this utterly amazing item?

Obviously nobody in pubs uses one, but I've found it to be one of the most overpowered items, agree/disagree?

My reasons for it being overpowered as such is;
  • It's not hard to get charges on it, and it heals a fair bit, both mana and health.
  • It's cheap!
  • Not many people buy it, giving you the advantage.
  • It's basically all you need early/mid game to win a pub.

my 600th game was with zephyr and i got power supply and let me tell you,

it helped me with alot of assists/kills/save myself



this item is very underated in low-mid and even in high skilled game

i'm using it as core item on almost every hero ( i play )

Its not underrated in high-skilled games... it also semi situational... like i get it always on some heroes... but if I am against a armadon/slither/nymph... it is a must no matter what hero I am.

I seem to get it regardless personally, because it does add up, and the +stats mean it isn't really a waste of space if it's not being used constantly.

I am not a professional of the sort, but I do notice these small things haha, if it is underrated in high-skilled games, I am quite shocked, I would have thought it would be a MUST-HAVE item, considering how cheap it is, and how much gold it allows you to make!

Its also great because of the 2*minor totems you can buy in the start, wich wont go to waste then, you can buy a battery at the side shop and then recipe when you finally back to base.
