Talk:Charging Bench/@comment-212.159.121.228-20121114112143

OK to summarise: re-batteries and Items based on re-batteries are level 1 (Except lap-pack).

Energy crystals and Items based on energy crystals (and lap-pack) are level two.

Lapotron crystals and items based on lapotron crystals are level three.

The level of the bench also determines the output when used as a discharger.

A level 1 outputs LV power

A level 2 outputs MV

A level 3 outputs HV

A lower level bench will not explode if a higher level device is installed, however to use the device it needs a transformer upgrade per difference in level for example:

I have a level 1 bench and I put a lapotron crystal in it, two transformer upgrades and apply redstone

I now have 1,000,000EU of LV power, enough to power a miner from surface to bedrock twice (diamond drill, OV scanner)

The charging bench-energy link combination is great for supplying buildcraft power as both devices can be removed with a pick.
