Energypack
Energypack is a chestplate-slot backpack from Industrial Craft 2 that stores 2,000,000 EU (the mod's energy unit) and recharges electric tools while mining.
Description
The Energypack is crafted from two Advanced Circuits, two Energy Crystals, and four Iron in a shaped recipe with the bottom-middle cell left empty; a single craft produces one backpack. Away from the base, the Energypack recharges without an MFE or MFSU: a worn Solar Helmet or Static Boots feeds the pack, and standing on an EU Chargepad refills the pack too. For a player who runs electric tools all day, the Energypack turns the chestplate slot into a 2,000,000 EU reserve that powers every electric tool in Industrial Craft 2.

Guide
How to Use the Energypack in Industrial Craft 2
-
1
Craft the Energypack
On a crafting table, fill the top row with an Advanced Circuit, an Iron, and an Advanced Circuit, the middle row with an Energy Crystal, an Iron, and an Energy Crystal, and the bottom corners with an Iron each, leaving the bottom-middle cell empty.
-
2
Charge the Energypack in an MFE or MFSU
The Energypack is power tier 3, so place the pack into an MFE or an MFSU and wait for the full 2,000,000 EU charge.
-
3
Equip the chestplate armor slot
Open the inventory and put the charged Energypack into the chestplate armor slot.
-
4
Work with an electric tool
Use an electric tool such as the Iridium Drill or the Mining Laser as usual; the tool draws energy from the worn Energypack instead of the tool's own storage.
-
5
Recharge away from the base
Wear a Solar Helmet or Static Boots, or stand on an EU Chargepad, to refill the Energypack without an MFE or MFSU.
The Energypack sits on power tier 3, so lower-tier storage units cannot charge the pack — only an MFE or an MFSU can.
