Hello! I followed a Youtube guide ( ) in building a Mekanism fusion reactor. Got it all setup, fuel (deuterium and tritium) are both plentiful, plenty of energy / speed upgrades all though out (which leads to a second question, later.) and as I am feeding the lasers / machines off of a DE Energy Sphere (Tier 7) power isn't an issue to keep the machines fed. I have 10 lasers feeding into three laser amplifiers, so 5 into one, 5 into the other, the two amplifiers feeding into the third and the third aimed at the reactor. I throw in the Hoharam (sp?), which is filled with DT Fuel, into the reactor controller. I zap it, it starts, doesn't eat the Hoharam (surprisingly) and starts to produce power. But the heat levels are dropping and continue to drop. Fuel isn't a problem, it's never wavered off of 1000 for both, but, before I had to close out my world for the night, it was at 6MK and still dropping rapidly. I tweaked with the rate, setting it at first at 2, then 4, and finally at 10, no change to the fuel and the temp was still plummeting. What am I doing wrong here? O.o
Question two, what is, in 1.12, the best way to get water into the brine towers? It used to be fluid transposers from Extra Utilities 2, but he's since nerfed them severely. Maximum of 4 speed upgrades and 1 stack upgrade, so 4 speed upgrades, 1 stack upgrade, and the mining upgrade (and plenty of GP, I have a dragon egg mill along with a water mill farm producing almost 700 GP, 500 for the egg and almost 200 for the water mills), and it just can't keep water in the tower. Even an Aqueous Accumulator with 5 blocks of water surrounding it using Super Laminar Fluiducts and a resonant servo can't keep up. O.o
I don't know Mekanism well enough to answer your first question, but for the second question, you could try an Infinite Water Source and High Pressure Pump from Pressure Pipes.

Cool! That works on keeping the two brine salination tanks full. Now to figure out what I am doing wrong with the reactor.
