"Made as an Example for a Forum Post, a fellow Player was wondering about powering more than one Turret via one (single) Power Pylon.

Showing two Laser Turrets connected via one Power Pylon, both with a 'single connection' per item, and 'daisy-chained' (in series, where each one connects to the next).

It seems, as long as the connected Generator in the Settlement (connected via Wires) provides enough Power to cover both items, then the items can be connected in any manner via the Wires.
Ex:
2+2=4 Power (Requirement)
or
3+3=6 Power (Requirement)
then a 10 Power Generator will be enough to power both items at the same time

I figured that out pretty quick. Daisy chaining isn't a good idea. Like old Christmas lights.

@j-r-h , you're right - powering multiple Turrets in series ('daisy-chained'. one to the next) is not the most efficient way to set them up, the point-of-failure is too large/multiple for them... This was more of an example showing that they 'could' both be powered up with one Pylon - someone in the Forum was asking if one Pylon could power more than one Turret. Thanks for your input, though

but there is a littel problem with the second picture because when the first turret is destroyed the second dosent get any energie more, this is realy frustating when 1/3 of the defense is after 1 damaged turret not working and the enemy overrun the defenders
