Not sure if this is the correct type of screen shot but I think its an accomplishment 100% induction furnace

It can handle normal LV (32 EUt).
Every pole stores up to 15 uses (1 EU each), the magnetizer powers 20 poles above and 20 poles below him every few ticks. Unless you constantly ride up and down, it doesn't need much power. Put a batbox next to it and you will see.

It does need to be a pole, otherwise it does not work.

Electrolyzers can be placed adjacent to MFE's/ MFSU's, then place WAter Cells into the left slot.
If the Electric Block next to it has 70% or more energy, it will start using this energy (at 5EUt) to process the water cells into electrolyzer water cells (15k EU for each process).
If the Electric Block is below 30%, it will return energy and, if necessary transform electrolyzed cells back into normal water ones (only for 13,5k, though).

You can consider it a cheap alternative to Lapatron crystals, as every stack of water cells can be "charged" with ~950k energy.

Good to mention. Bronze boots werent implemented whenthe Magnetizer was coded, and forgotten to be added later on.

Thanks for the info

1. You always fall down. But if you press sneak, you will grap onto the pole and slowly slide down. Imagine you're a firefighter :3
2. Not electrolyzer. Use the MAGNETIZER. Which doesn't have a GUI, but needs to be powered via wiring.

how much power does it need/howmuch can it handle? (btw your very quick to reply to questions )
also the iron fence, does it need to be in the form of a ladder or a poll?

Offtopic, kinda. In that case whats the electrolyzer for?

Has anybody gotten these fences to work? From what I gathered, you are supposed to be able to climb down them like ladders, and crouch to "slide" down even faster, and if you put an electrolizer (excuse spelling) on top, you can climb up it too.

I am encountering 2 problems,
1. I cannot "climb" down the ladders, I always fall (and die due to the height lol)
2. I cannot power the electrolizer, I tried crystals in them but no luck

Any information would be helpful, thanks

Use a batbox for machines or a LV transformer, to break down the energy from the MFE.

Theres no Ec manipulator? or is there a new device to check the current of the wires?

Quote from Gorni

copper: up to 32/package
gold: up to 128
Glass Fiber: up to 512
Iron: up to 2048

So I would need copper/gold cables to put current into machines? (except the mass fabricator ofc)
and the cables would need to be hooked up to a bat box? because the MFE current keeps blowing up my machines lol

Quote from Gorni

stand on the side you want to output to be and use a wrench on the Storage unit. Will change the output side, wrenching output side will give the block back.

also for pictures regarding the solars: http://forum.industrial-craft.…?page=Thread&threadID=495

Thanks, would there also happen to be a list of the what wires can attach to where? (sorry for all the questions)

Quote from Alblaka

Yes.

hmm interesting choice, mite make it a lil more complicated because no matter where I face, I cant get the output sides on top or bottom o.0

Quote from Alblaka

If MFE's explode, your supplying them with T3 or HV voltage. Do not feed MFE's more then 128EUt.

I think for some reason the MFSU was feeding power to the MFE, the faces of the MFE/MFSU's with the dot/symbols are the outputs now? not the top/bottom side?

Quote from Alblaka

1. Ensure the distance isn't too big. 3-4 cables for copper, less for others, except for glass fibre (which can lead along 19 blocks without loss)
2. Don't wire into the output (brown spot) side of a MFE/BatBox.
3. You can freely use a cable instead of the switch cable, the current will always travel to a valid energy consumant/storage, if in reach.
4. Currently only flows if it actually reaches the storage block. If it would nullify due to distance based loss, it wont send, at all.

Thanks, But why do MFE's explode? Mine keeps going "BOOM"

Has anybody figured out how to wire solar panels in IC2? the way I figure it we will have to do flowers of 5 solar panels since I cant find switch cables, But I have tried all 3 types of wires (copper/gold/fiber) to hook up the flowers to a MFE/MFSU and there is no energy flow into the storage blocks, can anybody help out?

Edit: was using HV cables instead of glass fiber cables, the fiber cables work for it. but will there be a switch cable eventually added? that way we can make bigger solar panels?

Edit2: My MFE keeps blowing up for some reason, any ideas?
