What do you do with all your excess power?

[cronixia]

I'm just curious, I see lots of people creating massive power plants to generate an enormous amount of energy in terms of EU + MJ. Soo I am asking you, what do you do with all your power?

Pics are welcome

Not at home right now, but I have tons of MFSU and Redstone Energy Cells to store all of my energy. Once the Ultimate pack is released with RP2, I'll have tons of battery boxes.

Later, I plan on building one of the greg tech storage blocks that store billions of EU, and put it in the very back of my power grid. That way, the MFSU grid keeps supplied and outputting massive amounts of EU while the greg tech storage block will supply at 128 eu/t I believe is its max output.

I use all my excess MJs for powering my 7 magma crucibles which are filling up a 7x7x8 iron tank.

I'd have no idea what to actually 'do' with one billion EUs. Other than matter fabricate it all or something else stupid like 50 quarries at once.

You just answered your own mystery

I usually wire in some tesla coils under other people's houses

My mass fab eat the leftover power

What if you have more than it can eat?

Make a few more fabs!

So true

Absolutely nothing, It fills up as fast I can can drain it so I just gave up. Still don't have the resources needed to make as many Fabs as I would need to waste all the energy.

I too charge up redstone energy cells, when I have empties. Otherwise I just turn off supply to all the magmatic engines and hope not too much lava is wasted before they run out.
The main thing I do with the energy cells is carry one around with a forestry logger and chop down some of giant redwood trees which infest my island. Or visit various Mystcraft ages to collect other sorts of wood.

Really big forcefield.
