The Nuclear reactor currently in ic2 is much more of a type of Thermoelectric Generator then a Conventional nuclear generator, which runs of steam. RITEG's Generate a relatively small amount of Energy compared to the Convention reactor, but does it over a very long time per isotope. My suggestion is that the current style reactor is turned into the Proper Conventional, with turbines and stuff (Perhaps IC2 could implement its own Steam and turbines that is compatible with RC's steam), with perhaps an internal steam or heat buffer (Yay for GUI Changes :P), while the people that want the Pure EU for say their Mass/matter fab they hooked up over night in their garden get the RITEG, For a cheaper, slightly more Environmentally friendly* use of their Radioactive Material. The Material in question would last a whole bunch longer (5 or 10 x their usual lifetime compared to the conventional reactor) but only produce maybe 10eu/t for a Quad UrCell. Of course, alot less heat would be produced due to the whole "Not fission" thing, and Putting cells next to cells wouldnt give such a bonus due to Neutrons not smashing.
Said RITEG should be made something like this:
*we are not responsible for improper waste disposal
Where = Reactor Chamber and = Some kind of Heat Conducting alloy. This could be a 2 High block placed from a single one in inventory (Like a bed), with a Single non-expandable but fairly tall GUI, consisting of 5 wide and 12 Tall INV Box thingies.
