Joel L Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 I have no idea how to get power from my batt box to the quarry? plz someone help
Torezu Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 A quarry doesn't run on EU, which a batbox provides. You may want to read up on the different mods and their respective power sources, along with ways to convert between them.
nevakanezah Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Quarries are part of the buildcraft mod, which uses its own form of power (power from engines, referred to as MJ, or megajoules.) In order to power a quarry with IC2's EU (energy units, i think,) you need an energy link, described here: http://thetekkit.wikia.com/wiki/Power_Converters . To use it properly, you wire your batbox to one side, and on the opposite side of the energy link, you will need both a wooden conductive pipe, as well as another intermediate conductive pipe, e.g. cobblestone, before connecting to the quarry. The extra pipe is because buildcraft intentionally does not enjoy connecting power sources to their targets with only a single wooden pipe. Some things to note - in my experience, the energy link is a huge drain on power, often taking up to 72 Eu/T at all times, even if its not actually connected to the quarry. Not a huge deal, but something to keep your eyes on. Hope this helps.
Iscamania Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 If you wish, you could still use IC2 power. Tekkit contains a mod called Power Converters. However, you'll loose power with this conversion. Simple as that, but it's possible.
