Just recently I've been playing with robot characters of different TLs and design parameters. That obviously involves lots of variation on "Digestive" traits.

Doesn't Eat/Drink for RTG radioactive Pu 238 powered PCs is one way to go.

Restricted Diet: Batteries/Electricity is the common canon robot trait.

One I'm making now is powered by genetically modified microbial fermentation produced ethanol. So carbs to alcohol to electricity. I'm not sure how to stat that one out, exactly.
Especially as when powered by ethanol he needs to breathe, but when hooked up to a battery he doesn't.
