The Alan Wake 2 battery stash lock code solution requires that players turn in their gun and flashlight for a pencil and pad of paper. It is a somewhat intricate math problem that has players deducing how many Amps B2 has. To figure this out, you’ll need to solve a math puzzle to figure out the charge that the three batteries (B1, B2, and B3) have.
How many Amps is B2 lock code in Alan Wake 2?
To figure out the battery stash lock code and how many amps B2 has in Alan Wake 2, you will have to break out a pad and paper (or a tablet or phone) to arrange the word problem into a more traditional math problem. The note thankfully gives you the amp values for all three values, if in a roundabout way, meaning there’s a way to figure out their charges.
B3 is the common variable here, so it is the easiest one to turn into X in the math problem needed to solve this riddle. And since B2 has 128 amps more than B3, B2 is X + 128. Since B1 has twice the amps of B3, B1 is 2X. Because there are 1,600 amps total, it’s possible to make the math problem into: 2X + X + 128 + X = 1,600.
Adding the X variables together and then subtracting 128 from 1,600 leads to 4X = 1472 and then X = 368. And since X is B3 and the lock code is B2, you will have to add 128 back to 368 to get 496. All of this is shown in the handwritten math problem above for those who want to visually see the steps.
Input 496 in order to open the stash. It will have some arrows, bullets, a trauma kit, and even a note complaining about having to do a math problem order to get supplies.
