There are different ways 레저네이터  and in turn the Portals they are associated with can loose power.

All Portals loose some of their energy (in the form of XM) on a daily basis for example, which is known as decay. In the process each 레저네이터  on the Portal looses exactly 15% of their maximum charge until they have no XM left and disintegrate as a result, eventually returning the Portal to a neutral state. To prevent this Agents have to **recharge** the Portal's 레저네이터  regularly by infusing them with XM from their own storage.

레저네이터  also loose some of their charge when subjected to special XM-Pulses as emitted by XMP 버스터  and Ultra Strikes Ultra Strike. If a Portal is under attack by such Weapons Agents can also recharge the Portal by continuously pumping XM back into its 레저네이터  to counteract the losses and prevent the 레저네이터  from being destroyed.

This can be done either directly by getting in close enough proximity to the Portal for it to be in the Agent's action radius, or remotely via a 포탈 키 . The distance at which an Agent can recharge a Portal remotely is determined by the Agent's Level and ranges from 250km at 레벨 1​ to 4 000km for L﻿16 Agents (See: Recharge Ranges) but the recharge efficiency drops at increasing ranges.

There are different options for how to recharge Portals:

`1 Depending on the recharge efficiency and Resonator's charge.
2 Only the charge of Resonators which are not already at full power will be increased.`

Each time any of those buttons is pressed the Agent is rewarded 10 AP regardless of the amount of XM used to recharge the Portal or actually recharging the Portal. The Recharger-medal is awarded for Portals' XM recharged.

## Recharging attacked Portals

Recharging Portals remotely may need some planning:

* if the Portal is of high level, you will probably need 파워 큐브  to recharge yourself in case of attack;
* if the Attacker is powerful, you may need to predict their arrival before they attack or you will not charge quickly enough;
* in any case the alerts will give you a quick link to the Portal recharge (you only need to wait for a fix to the Portal), but that is useful only if you have a 포탈 키 .

## Finding Portals to recharge

The easiest way known so far is to click `OPS > Inventory > Portal Keys`, then browse the 포탈 키s  and, when you see one for a Portal of your faction, check whether the energy bars of the respective 레저네이터  are full. If not, just tap twice and you will be able to recharge. This process is rather tedious but comprehensive.

## Medals

본 문서: Recharger
The following Medals can be earned by recharging a certain amount of Portals' XM:

Most Agents will agree that Recharger is the easiest 오닉스/Black medal to achieve, as Agents typically receive a surplus of 파워 큐브  from hacking.

## Strategy to maximize 액세스 포인트 (AP) gains from recharging

Since the amount of AP you gain for recharging is not determined my the amount of XM you recharge but the number of times you press any recharge button pressing the "recharge everything to max"-button is the quickest way to recharge everything but also the way of least AP-gain so if you intend to really benefit from recharging AP-wise having a plan is necessary.

## `Strategies for recharging single 레벨 8+ Agent Portals' daily decay`

 Fully single recharge(1x) L﻿4-, (2x) L﻿5- & (2x) L﻿6-Resonators(+50 AP)
 Fully single recharge remaining(2x) L﻿7- & (1x) L﻿8-Resonators(+30 AP)
 Total: 120 AP gained.

액세스 포인트 gained by...

...recharging all 레저네이터 : 60 AP

...single recharging 레저네이터 : 80 AP

## Recharging efficiency

Each single recharge costs the Agent 1 000 XM (unless the recharged Portal needs <1 000 XM to a full charge) the Portal charge however does not always increase by an equal amount. There are multiple factors which play into the recharging efficiency, the most obvious and well known one being the *Range efficiency* which is displayed in the recharging interface. Interestingly the usage of a 포탈 키  also effects the recharging efficiency. The only way to recharge a Portal by the full 1 0000 XM and thus getting the recharging efficiency truly to 100.0% is by recharging the Portal on location without having an active 포탈 키  of said Portal in one's inventory. If a 포탈 키  is used for recharging or even if the Portal is recharged on location but there is an active 포탈 키  of it in one's inventory the recharging efficiency drops (independently from the *Range efficiency*) to 99.2% and the Portal is only recharged by 992 XM.
The recharging efficiency can be calculated as follows:

> Recharging with <100.0% range efficiency: `100.0% Range efficiency = 0`
