A ''Geothermal Generator'' works on the same basic principle as normal [[Generator]]s do.<br />
<br />
Geothermal generators use the heat of Lava to generate electricity. With the release of IC², the generators accept both [[Non-IC Items|Lava Buckets]] and [[Lava Cell|Lava Cells]]. The latter are stackable and thus require less maintenance, but cost Tin to produce.<br />
<br />
Note for those using Buildcraft: the Geothermal Generator will now connect to Buildcraft's Waterproof Pipes, and will receive lava carried by them. It will also accept lava directly from an adjacent Buildcraft Pump.<br />

<br />
== Usage ==<br />
<br />
As with all Generators, the lava-based fuel of choice is inserted into the lower slot, and optionally an [[RE Battery]] in the upper slot. The Geothermal Generator will charge the battery or output power at a rate of 20 [[EU]]/t.<br />
<br />
A single Geothermal Generator can store 24 units of lava - thus, inserting a full stack of Lava Cells will instantly use up 24 of them and fill out the lava gauge. Unlike the [[Furnace|furnace]], the Geothermal Generator does not consume the [[Non-IC Items|bucket]] when a [[Non-IC Items|lava bucket]] is used as fuel. It is returned to your inventory.<br />

If you have the BuildCraft mod installed, you can effectively generate infinite power. Simply connect one (or more) of these magical machines to a BuildCraft [http://minecraftbuildcraft.wikia.com/wiki/Pump pump] pumping from a lava lake in [http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/The_Nether the Nether].<br />
<br />
<strong>INFINITE<sup><small>*</small></sup> POWER!</strong><br />
<br />
Also, if you have <span class="pops">[http://eloraam.com Eloraam's RedPower]</span> installed, you can pump the lava from the volcano** into the generator. <br />
<br />
<br />
<small>* Not responsible for limitations due to laws of physics.</small><br />
<br />
<small>** Not quite as "infinite" as the Nether.</small><br />

Please rewrite this article! The installation instructions are horribly written! Also the 1.2.5 file is either missing or hasn't been updated yet. Very unprofessional.<br />
