Why? Let me tell you of the amazing number of uses:Īny cable linked to the side faces of the MFE will transmit energy into it. The MultiFunctionalElectric Transmitter is necessary for any big industrial workspace using cables and current. Stores more EU than the sum of its components (30K).īefore 2.x, used Insulated Copper Cable instead of tin in recipe. IC² currently has four EU storage blocks. The button in the upper right cycles through the available options for the storage block's redstone behavior (though the last two options are output behavior). To the lower left of the main GUI are four slots that show the player's currently worn armor, allowing for quick charging of equipped items without having to remove them beforehand. The storage block GUI (example at right) has two slots for items the top slot is used for charging items from the block's EU storage, the bottom slot for discharging items into the block's EU storage.
wired to other storage blocks) can be used to avoid cable loss on lengthy transmission lines however, the material cost of crafting another storage block may well outweigh the extra 1 or 2 EU per packet you would otherwise lose.ĮU storage block GUI, showing full charge and armor slots (with player wearing the QuantumSuit set). Storage blocks will only retain 80% of their EU when removed.Ĭhained storage blocks (i.e.To remove a storage block, simply wrench the output face (or shift-wrench the face opposite it). To reorient a storage block, right-click with a wrench on the face you want to use for output, or shift-right-click to set it as the opposite face.
Exceeding this figure will almost certainly result in an explosion use a transformer of the correct tier to avoid this unfortunate event (or a series thereof). All other faces can be used for input, so long as no single input exceeds the block's maximum EU/t (based on its power tier).
This is indicated by a dot (observe the images in the table below). When placed, a storage block's output face is oriented toward the player.
This is accomplished through either in-world cable connections or the block's GUI. An EU storage block, as its name implies, is a block that accepts, stores, and outputs EU.
