Remote Energy

[Bogdaniel]

Is there a way in  tekkit to remote send mj ( like in tekkit lite ) or remote eu .. ? i've seen i have rf energy.. but i dunno how to really use it .. can you guys please help me .. i want to start putting some quarries in mystcraft

Remote MJ, no. Remote RF, yes. There is no EU in Tekkit any more, and good riddance.

Tesseracts are the go-to solution for intra-dimensional transport of items, fluids and energy, and this energy will be Redstone Flux (RF). Luckily for you, Thermal Expansion energy conduits will output RF or MJ as needed (conversion happens automatically), so you can attach your old MJ-using machines just fine to an RF network. This means you can just plonk a Tesseract on top of your Quarry, but you will have to run at least one piece of conduit between the two. Smart players like to put the Tesseract literally on top of the Quarry, place two pieces of conduit on the side to connect them, and place a buffer chest directly adjacent to the other end of the Tesseract connection.

i see.. i loved playing tekkit lite but .. since i have a new friend to play with .. he wasn't more and more stuff on the server so we decided to move onto tekkit and i was last night like where is the mj ?? where is the eu ..

 

btw for mfe / mfsu which is the alternative here ? i've seen in a presentation now some energy cells that store energy .. ? are those the only solution . ?

yep, there are energy cells in different tiers, capable of different capacity and output, the highest one would be the resonant cell capable of outputting/receiving 10k RF/t per side...

 

you have to configure the sides for input/output/both...

[Curunir]

Since everything centers on Thermal Expansion in Tekkit Main, TE's Energy Cells are the only power storage. They come in four tiers:

• Leadstone: saves 400.000 RF, max in/out is 80 RF/t
• Hardened: saves 2.000.000 RF, max in/out is 400 RF/t
• Redstone: saves 10.000.000 RF, max in/out is 2.000 RF/t
• Resonant: saves 50.000.000 RF, max in/out is 10.000 RF/t

10 RF equals 1 MJ.

 

The Conduits notably only have three tiers, with Redstone already carrying the the maximum 10.000 RF/t.

Quarry power draw differs depending on what it is currently doing, but it peaks at around 800-900 RF/t, I think. So you can only power it halfway with Hardened gear, unless you attach two separate Hardened Energy Cells and their respective Conduits.

you could also attach 2 taps to 2 sides of the energy cell and configure them to output energy, but you also have to attach 2 taps as input then, otherwise the cell will run dry...

got it guys :-) . thank you very much for taking time and answering.
