Essentially a Heat Generator is a geothermic generator that requires heat from the earth's lava in order to generate its electricity. Generally each generator can hold about 160.0 KJ worth of energy on its own. The best way to get the energy is to make several generators in a row, with a lava pool directly under it for an infinite slow source of power. Also watch out as sometimes random fires might start near the generators. We all know you wouldn't want to be caught on fire, it really burns when you lose your items after death.
Essentially a '''Heat Generator''' is a geothermal generator that utilizes heat from adjacent lava blocks (flowing or source) in order to generate electricity. Each generator can store 160.0 kJ worth of energy on its own.
 
For every lava source block placed next to or on the Heat Generator, the power output will raise 100 watts (100 joules/s). Buckets of lava, or coal may also be placed in the generator to temporarily boost energy output by 2000 watts. When using buckets of lava, the bucket remains in the input slot.
There seems to be a link between the amount of lava source blocks around the heat generator and the amount of energy it produces every second. For every source block placed next to the Heat Generator 5 more joules of energy(or 100 watts) is created every second.


The maximum non boosted power output of a heat generator is 500W; 5 sides of the generator must be touching lava, with the back face plugged into some form of wiring.

Essentially a Heat Generator is a geothermal generator that utilizes heat from adjacent lava blocks (flowing or source) in order to generate electricity. Each generator can store 160.0 kJ worth of energy on its own. For every lava source block placed next to or on the Heat Generator, the power output will raise 100 watts (100 joules/s). Buckets of lava, or coal may also be placed in the generator to temporarily boost energy output by 2000 watts. When using buckets of lava, the bucket remains in the input slot.

The maximum non boosted power output of a heat generator is 500W; 5 sides of the generator must be touching lava, with the back face plugged into some form of wiring.
