Type of accumulator?

[metzyn]

Unsure as where else I should ask this... but since it has to do with a mod I'll just put it here.

What is kind of electric storage is the accumulator? I want to make one that has greater capacity but I want to ensure its fairly realistic without slapping "Advanced" in front of it...

Perhaps you could try creating a "battery", which would hold more energy, but have a rather low cap on the maximal power in/out.
The current "Accumulator" acts more like a capacitor.

It is not possible to limit the amount energy it can use/provide per tick, but It would be useful not only for accumulators.

Will this be possible in the future?

I would assume it will, given that kovarex's reply was bundled with information there are some other places where such feature would be useful we are not even aware of

The high power accumulator could be the classic SMES.
A superconducting coil that can store lots of power.

Early models of that exist already in RL. They are just too expensive to operate practically, because superconductors.
