^ machine to insta-kill people in full quantum armor.

Total cost = approximately 100 diamonds, few stacks of iron, few stacks of rubber, few stacks of redstone.

How it works:
There are 11x10 HV transformers. Each has an internal buffer of 2048 EU, which will fill up from the solar arrays. they don't have to be MVs. They could be ANYTHING. Just the bigger they are, the faster you can charge up enough to kill a quantum armor person. 10 MVS like this will recharge the device in about 20 seconds. 10 LVs would do it in under 3 minutes, etc.

Then the high voltage side of all of them are connected to a single rotary macerator. Inside, it has 3 transformer upgrades (to allow it to accept Extreme Voltage), and a large number of energy storage upgrades (I used 1 stack. I know half a stack isn't enough).

A rotary macerator will eat up an infinite amount of energy in a tick until it fills up its energy storage upgrades. And a stack is enough to hold enough energy to insta-kill a quantum armor person.

Thus, when you flip the switch, over 220,000 EUs slam through the uninsulated wire in one tick (all the buffers of the transformers), and it instakills anybody within one block, no matter what armor they wear.


You can extend that one wire going to the macerator to be basically as long as you want (might need to add a few more transformers if it is unreasonably long, to make up for wire losses. Losses = about as many EUs per block as you have transformers, so adding one more will let you go about 5 blocks further with the same energy payload in electrocution). This can loop through various places you wish to defend, etc.

Also, by placing the wire at floor level in the corner between the wall and floor in a 2x1 hallway, nobody could see it, but it will still kill you, allowing for excellent trap potential

Something like this:
