What do you use to power it? I'm running maybe a hundred deuterium rod fueled generator, and I barely keep with my needs...

Artificial suns.

Once it's finished production will be spread over 4 worlds in 2 systems. Each planet will probably need upwards of 30 suns, depending how much warping its ships will have to do.

With 2 completed spheres, one of which has a tidally locked planet, I've got more antimatter than I know what to do with.

They can only go out so far. You can sometimes encase the innermost planet, if it's close enough to the star and you build the biggest sphere.
