QTHI Auxiliary Energy Generators OXP
Overview
Quirium Tech Heavy Industries (QTHI) proudly presents their newest piece of equipment: Long known technology finally reinvented for the future. The Auxiliary Energy Generators by QTHI are basically a small chamber to burn a small amount of Quirium gas (Witchspace fuel) to drive a generator for ship energy.
Equipment
Auxiliary Energy Generator Basic device consisting of a Quirium burn chamber and a Generator, and the connection to the ship's energy grid. Built directly as Kit in 4TC cargo space. Since it is inside the ship, it generates some heat, so don't use it near the sun! It triggers automatically at a configurable energy level.
High-Tech Auxiliary Energy Generator High tech device consisting of a Quirium burn chamber and a Generator, and the connection to the ship's energy grid. In difference to the low tech variant, this piece of equipment uses an energy barrier inforcement for the Quirium burn chamber, so it needs less space, but a little bit of Energy even when it is not active. Built directly as Kit in 2TC cargo space. Since it is inside the ship, it generates some heat, so don't use it near the sun! It triggers automatically at a configurable energy level.
Heavy High-Tech Auxiliary Energy Generator High tech device consisting of a Quirium burn chamber and a Generator, and the connection to the ship's energy grid. Like the lighter, normal High-Tech variant, this piece of equipment uses an energy barrier inforcement for the Quirium burn chamber, so it needs less space, but a little bit of Energy even when it is not active. Built directly as Kit in 5TC cargo space, but also generates more energy. Since it is inside the ship, it generates some heat, so don't use it near the sun! It triggers automatically at a configurable energy level.
Light Auxiliary Energy Generator High tech device consisting of a unique apparatus directly installed by QTHI inside of your witchdrive engines. Like the other High-Tech variants, this piece of equipment uses an energy barrier inforcement, but not for the Quirium burn chamber, it needs it for maintaining the Quirium flow. It does not take up precious cargo space, but when active, the Witchdrive engines are in Generator mode, thus disabling the original Witchspace engine functionality. Since it is located outside the ship, heat is not a problem, but the efficiency of the device is limited. It triggers automatically at a configurable energy level.
