Recipes
The magnetizer can:
- Turn two iron ingots into a Basic Magnet with 5kJ of energy; and
- Turn two Alloy Ingots into an Advanced Magnet with 15kJ.
The Basic Magnet is presently unused.
Power usage
When not upgraded, the 50V/200V magnetizers have an internal resistance of 12.5 Ohms and 100 Ohms respectively, drawing 4 and 2 Amperes respectively. With the capacity of low and medium voltage cables, it is safe to put only up to 5 magnetizers on an otherwise-unoccupied circuit.
Note that Machine Boosters will affect the current draw. TODO: Describe the effect of machine boosters on power.
