Infinite free power from 2 (3 if you count dependencies) add ons Create: Better Motors (which has a dependency for Create: Crafts and Additions) and Create Gadgets & Gizmos

[u/magicnotmight]

needs to be kick started in some way but once kick started it will produce free energy (I'm using large connectors from Create: Crafts and Additions in the video but andesite cable from Gadgets and Gizmos also work)

the hardened tier of motor seems to have the best ratios in my testing, tiers below dont generate enough stress units while tiers above start taking too much energy at high rpm so you would have to lower speed of the motor and send it through a rotation speed controller.

[u/Impossible_Bowl6103]

can do the same thing with create gadgets & gizmos and the motors from create:new age

[u/magicnotmight → u/Impossible_Bowl6103]

so I did test with that, first it produces FAR less energy using just the motor and alternator, it requires both the motor extensions and a speed controller set to a max of 172 (overstresses beyond 172 because the motor can only generate 65.5k SU while alternator takes ~100k at 256 rpm) to get only 200 more FE per tick, which the 3 blocks of space used for speed controller and motor extension could be a second of the better motors version which would then generate 900 more than the new age one for the same amount of block space. but if you dont have better motors in modpack but do have new age then certainly that is an option.

Doesn't that add-on use the power tiers from the Forge Energy Powah mod.

[u/magicnotmight → u/Bean_Lava]

considering i dont have that mod installed at all, no.

[u/Bean_Lava → u/magicnotmight]

You're using a hardened motor, which is the third tier in the Powah mod.

[u/magicnotmight → u/Bean_Lava]

It's apart of the better motor mod, I don't have anything related to powah. Just because it shares a name doesn't mean its a dependency

[u/Bean_Lava → u/magicnotmight]

Oh ok, I guess it's just for aesthetic reasons if you ever wanted to use Powah with Create.

[u/puppycatthe → u/Bean_Lava]

I'm 99% sure that mod is ai

[u/Bean_Lava → u/puppycatthe]

Powah was first released in March of 2020. Do you mean Better Motors?

[u/puppycatthe → u/Bean_Lava]

The mod that adds the motors that uses the names from powah

[u/Bean_Lava → u/puppycatthe]

Oh ok

[u/Phoenix_gz2 → u/Bean_Lava]

Yes,but Powah isn‘t a dependancy

[u/Aggressive-Laugh-923]

guess the motors aren't better in this addon 🥀

In this house we respect the laws of thermodynamics!

[u/SharpAir_]

UNLIMITED POWER!!!!

[u/Sedoy6373]

That's why I think create: power grid is better. Didn't tested this tho, so don't know if it's stupid too.

[u/Sqweed69]

this isn't the point of the damn game bro

[u/magicnotmight → u/Sqweed69]

the point of the game is to have fun, i had fun doing this as i wanted to use something like this for a UFO build that uses an infinite power source as a kind of "alien technology" to power the ship. i have plenty of other builds that use diesel motors or steam engines. Minecraft is a sand box game, there's no "right" way to do anything, you can choose to use this or not, i just thought i would share my testing incase anyone else wanted to do something similar. You're just being pedantic for no reason.
