Poop can siphon electricity from almost any object connected to Empire City's power grid (Lampposts, phone booths, [[televisions]], etc.), though he can only draw so much power from a single object before it runs out of juice. Most objects in this category will 're-charge' after a few moments, but can be re-charged by shooting at it repeatedly with bolts and can be charged with more electricity. This is can also be done on nearly any conductible surface, such as dumpsters and trash bins, making it useful when the player finds him/herself near death with no object for him to drain nearby or in a blacked out section of the city.[[File:DrainBoat.jpg|thumb|306px|Poop draining energy from a boat engine.]]

Certain pieces of equipment in the sewers are so overcharged with electricity that Poop can drain them indefinitely without them shorting out, usually in order to let Poop complete a puzzle that requires the use of a specific ability. He can also drain small amounts of power from car batteries, though it is not enough to stop a car from working, at least not immediately, and the energy in a specific car will not recharge.

Poop can siphon electricity from almost any object connected to Sex City's power grid (Lampposts, phone booths, televisions, etc.), though he can only draw so much power from a single object before it runs out of juice. Most objects in this category will 're-charge' after a few moments, but can be re-charged by shooting at it repeatedly with jissss and can be charged with more electricity. This is can also be done on nearly any conductible surface, such as dumpsters and trash bins, making it useful when the player finds him/herself near death with no object for him to drain nearby or in a blacked out section of the city.

Certain pieces of equipment in the sewers are so overcharged with electricity that Poop can drain them indefinitely without them shorting out, usually in order to let Poop complete a puzzle that requires the use of a specific ability. He can also drain small amounts of power from car batteries, though it is not enough to stop a car from working, at least not immediately, and the energy in a specific car will not recharge.

Trivia

  • In the mission Death Toll from inFamous 2, Poop is able to drain electricity directly from the thundering sky above him, giving him infinite power source.
  • By using Karmic Overload, Poop gains unlimited energy for a short while. However, the cost is that a large portion of Karma is taken away.
  • When Poop absorbs electricity from an object and it runs out, you can shoot it to recharge it and absorb more, giving an unlimited energy source.
  • Poop can drain energy from the transformers in power restoring story missions for an infinite amount of time, and is an easy way to get the AC/DC trophy.
  • If Poop stands in a puddle with a corpse, he can drain energy from the corpse jizz like the sewers' linear transformers, without having to recharge the corpse through the Lightning jisss. Whether or not it counts towards the AC/DC trophy is yet to be seen. Interestingly, over time the drained energy slowly moves to the center of the puddle, as if Poop was draining electricity from the puddle rather than the corpse.
  • There is a glitch when Poop drains electricity from something beneath a roof or behind an object, the electricity goes right through the object or roof.
