== Nuclear Reactors ==
Available as soon as you've reached the Moon (late HV-early EV, or just get some titanium from aluminum gravel), nuclear reactors are a strong power source for EV and IV. The process of creating a reactor is quite complex and risks huge nuclear explosions. You are strongly advised to try all designs in a [https://github.com/MauveCloud/Ic2ExpReactorPlanner/releases reactor planner] before using them, and to encase your reactors in reinforced materials (2 layers minimum) or warded glass (thaumcraft) to prevent explosions from destroying the area. Test your reactor in creative first! [https://ftb.fandom.com/wiki/IC2_Nuclear_Control Nuclear Control 2] is in the pack allowing various automation and information to be done.
 
There are in general two types of reactors, '''power producing''' and '''breeder''' (for the items). For the power ones, you want the greatest efficiency (fewer rods, more power) and for breeders, you just want to consume as many rods as you can as fast as possible. Stacking also comes into play for large numbers, since they are not conveniently designed for that normally.
