Well, topic pretty much says it all.

 

I finally got the power armor and slapped on elite batteries on all pieces but found to my surprise that I'm unable to charge them.

 

Tried solar and wind and surely enough the MFSU collects energy but none are transferred to the suit parts. 

- Suggestions what to do?

 

I've searched alot for an answer to my problem but everything points to batpacks or MFSU but I just can't get it to work.

 

First time playing Direwolf20 so I must've missed something basic.

 

Edit: Quantumsuit works fine btw.

 

Best regards,

Kenekten

In the tinker table, be sure to check that your batteries are set to hold a charge, and also check what IC2 Tier you have them configured as. I think powersuits can only be set up to Tier 3 (MFE-equivalent).

 

I've had no problem charging powersuit parts by placing them in an EnderIO Capacitor Bank, Thermal Expansion Energetic Infuser, or Extra Utilities Energy Transfer Node, if you have an RF setup in addition to the EU stuff you've mentioned.

 

Edit: If you only installed the batteries and didn't tinker with them at all, they should have started with a full charge.

IC2 tier shouldn't be a problem, charging devices like the MFSU are down-compatible, e. g. you can charge a RE-Battery in a MFSU. This doesn't work the other way around though, and with a lower EU tier you might not get the same charge speed.
