ARavinMadMonkey Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 So as we all know the Forestry Mod will be removed in the next update of Technic/Tekkit. I was wondering what I could use to convert IC2 power (EU from a nuclear reactor, solar panels and such) To buildcraft power to power say a quarry. I found this, http://www.tekkitwiki.co.uk/index.php/Power_Converters, and the Energy Link looks like what im looking for. My current setup is MSFU -> HVT -> MVT -> LVT -> Glass fibre cable -> Eletrical Engine -> Quarry What would my setup need to be when the time of 1.2.5 Tekkit comes?

Neowulf Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 MFSU -> glass fibre -> energy link. Electrical engines are only nice because they're throttled to 6EU/t. For a quarry or other similar machine an energy link will work just fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ARavinMadMonkey Posted May 23, 2012 Author Share Posted May 23, 2012 but what comes after the Energy Link? Would there need to be pipes to the quarry or something? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bonfire01 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Energy link -> wooden conductive pipe (no need for an engine on it) -> gold conductive pipes (for less loss) -> machine. Energy links don't match the power output (and therefore IC power used) to demand so you want to run several things off one link to reduce wastage of power.

ioun267 Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Personally, I throttle the EU's through transformers down to LV, specifically to avoid waste Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
