Trash Into Treasure
Any map. 2 objectives. Unlocked by Picking Up The Pieces. Every objective in order, with screenshots from the game.
Trash Into Treasure is a Shani quest that works on any map: collect 6 Wires and 1 Battery and bring them to her. Both are common electrical parts. They come from Electrical and Technological containers, mostly computers and server racks, and both can also lie loose next to them. Two places on Spaceport give you both in one run, and recycling a few household items covers the rest.

1
Obtain 6 Wires
On Spaceport, head for the Arrival Building on the side facing away from the middle of the map. Go through the main doorway (a turret sometimes covers it), turn right and breach the room with the server lockers: servers, drawers and speakers there give Wires, Processors and Batteries. Then go back out, turn right, and breach the next door along for a second room like it.
Short on Wires? Recycling is quicker than searching: a Power Cable recycles into 4 Wires and a Toaster into 3 (plus Plastic Parts) in Speranza. Scrapping them topside gives about half.

Obtain 1 Battery
The densest Battery spot on Spaceport is the top of the Launch Towers in the middle of the map. Take the stairs down, ride the zipline all the way up, and clear any Fireballs, turrets or Pops waiting there. Breach and search the computers and servers, and check the desks beside them: Batteries also lie around loose. Even if someone looted the room before you, they usually leave the Batteries.
A Power Bank recycles into 2 Batteries and 2 Wires. On Stella Montis, the Communications room and the control room across from it are full of Batteries, with a hatch right next door to extract.
Put the parts in your safe pocket so you keep them if you go down.

Also good: Research & Administration on Dam
On Dam Battlegrounds, Research & Administration (Technological) and the Power Generation Complex (Electrical) are the high-loot areas for both parts. The zipline behind the reception desk takes you up to the offices. The map shows every container in Research & Administration that can hold them; the building has several floors, so use it to see which rooms to check, not exact spots.
