-* The recipe requires 5 Hydrogen at 8 MJ each, while the finished product has 40 MJ. This means there is no gross energy gain when burning [[Hydrogen]] when burning in a [[Thermal Power Station]] but there will be a loss of 1 [[Titanium Ingot]].
+*Prior to patch 0.6.17.5972, Hydrogen Fuel Rods had an energy of 40 MJ, the same as the five [[Hydrogen]] needed to craft one. This rendered them a net loss of energy when the energy required to craft one and the [[Titanium Ingot]] they each require were accounted for.
-** However a stack of Hydrogen Fuel Rods stack better (30 * 40 MJ = 1.2 GJ) as compared to a stack of [[Hydrogen]] (20 * 8 MJ = 0.16 GJ).
+*Hydrogen Fuel Rods have a higher fuel chamber rating than Hydrogen and are more energy dense, making for much better fuel for the Mecha.
-*** A full [[Storage Tank]] of [[Hydrogen]] has 80 GJ of energy (8 MJ * 10000 slots)
-*** A full [[Storage Mk.II]] of Hydrogen Fuel Rods has 72 GJ of energy (40 MJ * 60 slots * 30 stack size)
-** Hydrogen Fuel Rods also have an added 100% Fuel Chamber Generation bonus from component [[Hydrogen]].
-** As a result, Hydrogen Fuel Rods should typically be used to fuel the mech as needed, and raw [[Hydrogen]] used for [[Thermal Power Station]] power generation.
