There must be something you must have missunderstood. Because, using 1 MV energy hatch is more efficient than using 2-4 LV energy hatches. The EBF uses the same energy in both combinations, but supplying LV has more losses than MV.Oh ok, so I can't really do energy efficient (correct tier) processing in a 4x4?
I thought that 128v input flipped the EBF into HV - just checked the wiki, it's 129. I feel dumb, that's so much simpler.There must be something you must have missunderstood.

How many EU/t does that translate to though using IC2 stirling generators? Wouldn't it be accurate to say that you can get more EU/t out of a 5x5x5 by going with a GT5u LHE into GT turbines (with all the associated downsides of using GT turbines, of course)?I've got a 5x5x5 going with one of Blackpalt's designs that is good for ~1352Hu/s. These are safe and easy to automate(if you just use stirlings instead of the steam loop), will probably make 5-10 more of them and automate the bunch.
Just working on a good layout for them now, have a gt transformer stuck on each stirling at the moment, thinking maybe I can do a stacked flower with MFSUs in the middle or something.

While I agree that biogas is currently a bit too easy, methane production needs a minimum of one machine, whereas biogas needs a minimum of four. I would much rather see the ratio of biomass->biogas reduced than I would want to see the fuel value of biogas altered.I know this was mentioned before, but is there any intent to change the energy required to turn biomass -> biogas? 1000mB of biomass, which is trivial to obtain, converts to 32,000mB of biogas that produces 32000 EU/1000mB. That's nuts compared to the energy returned for centrifuging plants into methane.
Most importantly does it return IC2 distilled water? (I really hate that IC2 can't use GT distilled water, or regular steam for that matter)Question: If I use the IC2 turbines I can get my distilled water back, does the GT5U large turbine return distilled water?
Strange I had no problem with my 2 ebf sharing a EV energy hatch.Don't share energy hatches. A 2x2 EBF has each 4 blocks in the lowest level that are not shared. These must be used by Controller, Maintainance and Energy hatch. You should only share input and output hatches/busses. So when shareing walls of EBFs, you must use single energy hatches per EBF, not multiple LV hatches.
The calculation for needed energy of mk3 fusion was broken for quite some time. No one noticed for months it seems... Fixed it a few days ago, but IT2 did not yet update the the newest GT version.

It works, but the energy hatch only accepts 2 amp and each EBF uses allmost one full amp. So a little bit too high loss or any other little misssupply can make it run out of energy. For me that is too borderline to use it myself.Strange I had no problem with my 2 ebf sharing a EV energy hatch.
Yes. Battery Buffers has an internal buffer which is first filled and then the batteries are filled. That internal storage is equal to the Battery Buffer's Voltage, multiplied by the number of Battery slots it contains, multiplied by 64.Is there some sort of internal buffer inside a GT battery buffer? I've got an MFSU > Extreme transformer(inverted) > 16-slot IV battery buffer. If the system is off(no power coming into the MFSU) and I stick an energy orb in the battery buffer after setting it up the orb loses some of its energy. Where is it going? Then when I turn it on it takes a minute or two before the orbs start charging.
Anyway, here is what the reactor looks like now. I'll do 4 of these per layer, 2-4 layers, run the power up the center to the machine room. All of it in one chunk. Looking at it now if I push the reactors to the edge I can pull the stack down beside each reactor, greatly compressing the build.

No, there is nothing to measure energy flow. So your only way for that is to stop the time and energy stored at start/end.Is there a tool to measure energy flow through GT wires? I'm 90% sure my reactors are putting out too much power (they aren't throttled, despite EU mode).
To the person who suggested I use the backupped worlds, thank you. It worked, and I'm working on my blast furnace now.
I have another problem: I right-clicked my coal boiler with a bronze plate, and I wasted it, I can't get it back, and I also can't right click the coal boiler thru the bronze plate. How to fix this?! Thanks!

Takes a lot of work/time to get to mk3. I haven't even bothered generating power from fusion though yet. I've just been pushing through the tiers. I want to get enough Neutronium to make an ultimate batter and then do sustained mk3 fusion and start my 27,000 year ticker.Maybe noone noticed because noone was so crazy to build mk3 fusion in proper survival (except me and Dlur . And I didn't bother to make neutronium). However my SUSTAINED mk3 reaction (which I wanted to make a video about) was working fine a month or 2 ago.
