IndustrialCraft

When IndustrialCraft 2 is installed, the following additional items are available.

IC2 Stargate Power Unit

This device allows a stargate to be powered using IC2 power instead of naquadah. It contains a capacitor bank to provide the large burst of energy needed to establish a stargate connection. It can be connected to a supply of unlimited voltage and holds up to 1,000,000 EU.

The IC2 Power Unit should be installed below the stargate, under the base block or one of the bottom row of ring blocks. It will take some time to charge up. Right-click to open a GUI showing the current charge level.

Energy stored in the Power Unit cannot be drained out. However, it retains its charge when picked up, so you can move it from one place to another without losing energy.

Very long-range connections may require energy exceeding the maximum capacity of a single power unit. To accommodate this, you can install multiple power units under the gate. There is room for up to 5 units, although you shouldn't need more than 3 under most conceivable circumstances.
