/facepalm
I've read that page heaps before, never noticed the crystals/orbs.....i think the problem was i was searching for 'batteries'
cheers

What are people using for their main EU Storage bank?
I was thinking of getting a bunch of MFSUs, but not sure if there is anything else that offers more storage? I see the Lapotronic multiblock, but note it only outputs 512EU so that isnt ideal.
The IESU isn't in this pack is it?

I recommend only using LV for deuterium and MV for tritium. Otherwise the centrifuges need more Energy than the Fusion reactor produces.
Ah good pickup. Ultimately self sustaining is where i want to get to, so will go the LV/MV format

I haven't actually tried any fusion reactors, but I think I can still at least partially answer your questions:
1. By my calculations: about 32 MV centrifuges, 16 HV, 8 EV, or 4 IV to make enough tritium from deuterium to keep it constant (125 tritium per 16-tick fusion reaction); about 125 LV centrifuges, 63 MV, 32 HV, 16 EV, or 8 IV to make enough deuterium from hydrogen to use for making tritium; add about 25% more to cover the deuterium side of the D-T reaction; the number of centrifuges/electrolyzers you need to get enough hydrogen depends a lot on which recipe you use - there are 2 centrifuge recipes that produce hydrogen gas and 16 electrolyzer recipes. If you want to electrolyze water for a constant supply of hydrogen to centrifuge for deuterium and tritium, that will take 118 (LV)/59 (MV)/30 (HV)/15 (EV)/8 (IV) electrolyzers.
2. The recipe for centrifuging deuterium to get tritium calls for 80 EU/t, so you need at least MV centrifuges for that, and if you're electrolyzing anything other than water to get your hydrogen, you'll need an MV-tier electrolyzer.

In regards to the deuterium/tritium fusion reaction and making it self sustainable...what are people using for the following
1) How many centrigues/Electrolyzers to keep constant source of input
2) I assume these machines being 32EU variants wouldnt be a problem (just needing more?)
3) I've read that i can use a Processing Array to minimise the footprint of the machines....is there a wiki site i can read up on this? -
Both inputs on the upper side is fine. And yes, all haches must be LuV or higher for the first tier. Likely somewere in there a single misplaced block.
I thought this might be the case, but i have rebuilt it twice! I would have thought that the input hatches would not have changed texture if the sturcture was incomplete?
Will try to rebuild a 3rd time for arguments sake!

Hi all,
Wondering if you can help me figure out why my fusion reactor Mark I says structure incomplete.Been following these instructions
http://ftb.gamepedia.com/Fusion_(GregTech_5_Unofficial)This is what i have
https://i.imgur.com/1TyAjTU.jpgnote: in the middle you cant see, but i have set up the superconductor coils correct as per wiki
As you can see, the hatches all change texture to signify (what i believe) that it is correct.
I have even used LUV input and output hatches! (do these even need to be LuV?)
I have also tried importing power into the LuV hatches, but the fusion computer still stays at 0%
Any ideas?
