In the Roblox tycoon simulation Can You Charge My Phone? by Supercharge Labs, your main objective is turning raw electrical power into cash. Customers approach your stand with drained hardware—ranging from standard smartphones to routers, alarm clocks, and gaming controllers—hoping to get them powered up.
If you are just starting out, learning how to charge devices efficiently is the key to expanding your slots and growing your business. Here is a complete breakdown of the charging loop, unit progression, and station management based on gameplay mechanics and official game details.
Step-by-Step: How to Charge Devices
The core loop of the game revolves around taking orders, slotting items, and collecting payouts once charging is completed.
- Place Power Units in Your Base: Before you can charge any hardware, your stand requires electricity. You must place power generation units—starting with a basic Potato Battery—onto your plot to supply charges per second.
- Accept Customer Requests: NPCs regularly walk up to your counter. Interacting with them reveals the device they want charged and the cash reward they offer. You can choose to accept the job or reject low-paying offers.
- Place the Device in an Open Charging Slot: Once you take the item, walk over to your charging station and interact with an open slot to place the device down.
- Wait for Charging to Complete: The device begins filling up based on your total power per second. Once charging finishes, interact with the item to complete the order. The device leaves your station and the cash is added straight to your balance.
If you step away or neglect customers waiting in line, keep in mind that customer deals can expire if you take too long to accept them.
Power Units and Charging Speed
Devices scale in charge capacity. While basic smartphones charge relatively quickly, higher-tier items such as routers or gaming controllers demand significantly more power. Upgrading your power generation ensures that even large batteries fill up within seconds.
| Power Unit | Observed Output / Feature | Source Note |
|---|---|---|
| Potato Battery | 10 charges per second | Starter generator observed in gameplay |
| Car Battery | Faster charge rate upgrade | Mid-tier generator observed in gameplay |
| Water Wheel | Rapid multi-unit power supply | Mid-tier generator observed in gameplay |
| Cheap Solar | Advanced clean power unit | Higher-tier generator observed in gameplay |
| Electrical Furnace | 7,000 power generation | High-tier powerhouse observed in gameplay |
Players can place multiple power units across their base to stack charge speed. As your total power generation rises, customer tiers improve, bringing in bulkier equipment that offers significantly higher cash payouts.
Managing Slots and Upgrades
At the start, you can only handle a limited number of devices at a time. Expanding your active slots and purchasing base upgrades prevents bottlenecks.
Unlocking Additional Slots
- Third Charging Slot: Unlocked using in-game cash (observed at $100,000 cash during gameplay).
- Fifth Slot Game Pass: Costs 79 Robux on the official store page, allowing you to charge an extra device simultaneously.
- Sixth Slot [X2 FASTER] Game Pass: Costs 249 Robux on the official store page, granting a sixth slot and doubling charging speed.
- Auto Collect Game Pass: Available for 29 Robux on the official store page, automatically collecting rewards when charging completes.
Station Stat Upgrades
As you earn money, you can invest in permanent stat upgrades at your shop:
- Power Multiplier: Directly multiplies your base electricity generation, cutting down the wait time on high-capacity orders.
- Better Offer Luck: Increases the likelihood of NPCs showing up with rare, high-paying devices rather than low-tier phones.
- Inventory Capacity: Expands the amount of batteries and items you can store and place on your plot.
Strategic Tips for Faster Progression
- Decline Low Payouts: You are not required to accept every customer. If an NPC offers an insignificant amount of money for a device that ties up a slot, decline the offer to make room for high-value clients.
- Watch Out for Thieves: According to official badge data, players can encounter special NPCs such as thieves, and official developer notes mention checking for a traveling black market merchant whose items help with demanding customers.
- Stack Upgrades Early: Reinvesting early earnings into stat upgrades like Offer Luck and Power Multipliers yields better returns than hoarding cash for long periods without boosting your charging speed.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can devices overcharge if left on the slot?
No. In gameplay testing, devices stop charging once completed. You can leave them on the pad until you are ready to collect the payment, or use the Auto Collect feature if you own the corresponding pass.
