It can be used to charge any tier of energy storage unit by either connecting the two blocks by placing them directly next to each other or using one of ic2 s different cable types.
Ic2 solar panel array.
There is an add on named advanced solar panels that introduces 3 new solar panels advanced hybrid and ultimate hybrid each an upgrade from the last.
Solar array contains information about the industrial craft mod.
An array is a group of 8 lower level solar panels arrays.
There is a slot in the gui that is for charging tools batteries and battery packs.
The mod is created to reduce lag in worlds if there are a lot of solar panels the world can become laggy.
In terms of resources due to.
The second tier solar array it generates 64 eu per tick and outputs packets of the same size.
Upgrading to a medium voltage solar array allows to generate the same amount of power from a 12 5 smaller area.
Solar arrays are machines added in the advanced machines add on to the core mod industrialcraft.
Use a wrench ic 2 or electric wrench to remove the panel properly.
The solar panel is used to create industrialcraft 2 s eu energy using solar power.
It is a more efficient version of the solar panel producing 8 eu t instead of 1 eu t in the same amount of space.
The medium voltage solar array is a block added by the compactsolars mod.
The low voltage solar array is a block added by compactsolars that is an upgrade from the regular solar panel it generates power at a rate equivalent to the advanced solar panel provided that the sky is visible although it does not have any internal storage and also outputs its power at a rate of 8 eu p as opposed to the advanced solar panel s packet size of 32 eu p.
The preferable method of construction involves the setting up of automatic crafting tables to perform these tasks as otherwise creation would become tedious.
It is still bound by the same placing restrictions working only in direct sunlight and generating far less eu in rain and thunderstorms.
There is another add on called compactsolars that also introduces 3 solar arrays which are combinations of many solar panels lv 8 solars mv 64 solars hv 512 solars.
This ratio remains true with the higher tier solar arrays as well.
A medium voltage array outputs 64 eu per tick and a high voltage array outputs a whopping 512 eu but is composed of 512 standard panels.
If no automatic crafting tables are available the next best option would be a project table.
If attempting to reclaim a solar panel do not use any type of pick as this has adverse effects on the fragile components of the block.
The low voltage solar array will output 8 eu per tick with is the sum output of its component solar panels.
This will revert the panel back to a generator.
They are used to reduce the size of solar farms which can quickly become invasive.
