I like the idea of an EMAG having a pool of charges which slowly regain overtime, im not good with balancing things so i couldnt say the exact number but it should be large enough that intermittent use wont drain it fully but going on a rapid spree will require a recharge.
potentially even having some kind of overheating (i dont know a better term for it) factor could be good, where it doesnt spend charges, but it gains "heat" per emag and if it builds up too much heat it will stop functioning for a time and need to cool down (with visual indicators + examine text).
And if it PHYSICALLY did overheat you could even try to add something like giving it coolants or such to let you do more with it, though im not sure if thats too complicated. like it comes with water in some compartment, but with the right access you could replace with something like cryostylane. could even have coolant deplete itself? I am just spitballing ideas i think could be interesting, not that i think they are desperately needed.
I usually also find if someone wants to just, open every airlock on station thats their use of their round, and usually get caught pretty quickly eventually because they become public enemy 1# because people like having doors that work.
