Required Tool

The Static Charge Pad is a block similar to a pressure plate which, when stood upon, will recharge IndustrialCraft² items that are either worn or equipped. If multiple items that need to be charged are worn, the energy will be evenly distributed between them. While emitting EU, the pad will glow green. The Static Charge Pad is the lowest tier of Charge Pads.

To break the pad, an IC2 Wrench must be used.

Note that the pad will emit EU whenever you stand on it even if there is nothing to power. Therefore, it is advised not to stand on it unless something needs to be charged.

Storage[edit]

Without upgrades, the Static Charge Pad can hold up to 40.000 EU. It will take input up to 32 EU/t and output 32 EU/t. The Static Charge Pad can be charged up either by connecting it to a Cable or with items that store EU, such as the RE-Battery that can be put in the middle bottom slot of the GUI.

Upgrades[edit]

The Static Charge Pad has only one out of three upgrade slots available. The other two are unusable, marked by the red colour.

The performance of the Static Charge Pad can be improved by using the following upgrades:

Overclocker Upgrade: Increases overall charge rate but also increases energy consumption.
Efficiency Upgrade: Counteracts Overclocker Upgrade energy consumption plus minor charge ratio bonus.
Energy Storage Upgrade: Increases EU Storage from 40,000 to 50,000
Drain Conversion Module: Allows to drain EU instead of emitting it.
Transformer Upgrade: Transforms EU output from 32 EU/t to 128 EU/t
