About this project

What does Expansion Capacitors add?

Description

Take energy with you wherever you go.
The Capacitor Expansion mod adds a series of portable capacitors to Minecraft capable of storing large amounts of energy (FE). Perfect for adventures, automation setups, and continuous use of energy-based tools, these items allow you to charge equipment, weapons, energy cubes, and any other item compatible with the Forge energy API.

With multiple capacitor tiers — from basic to high-end — you’ll always have the right power solution for your needs.

Each capacitor has its own energy capacity and is ideal for players using mods like Mekanism, Thermal, and others. Whether you're exploring or managing industrial setups, you’ll always have power at the click of a button.


⚙️ How to Use

  1. Charge your capacitor: Connect it to an energy source (like Mekanism cubes) to fill it with energy. It starts empty.
  2. Activate the capacitor: Hold it in your hand and right-click. A sound will play and it will start glowing, indicating it's active.
  3. Place it in your inventory: Once active, put it in any inventory slot. It will automatically charge all energy-capable items in your inventory.
  4. Deactivate when needed: Hold it again and right-click. It will stop glowing and preserve energy.
