Erchius Converter

"Converts erchius energy into a more potent fuel"

The Erchius Converter can be found in Precursor Dungeon. Used to turn most ship fuels into superior Precursor Quantum Fluid and the latter into Ancient Essence. Be aware that there is also a Faulty version that produces Bags of Farts instead of Quantum Fluid.

Tips
Poison, as found on Toxic Ocean planets, can be a viable way to obtain limitless amounts of Precursor Quantum Fluid. If you place Poison in a centrifuge, one of the resulting ingredients is Toxic Waste, which in turn can be placed in a centrifuge to extract Uranium Ore from. Forge the resulting Ore into Rods and you'll have fuel to convert. Given that poison is an easily obtained resource, this means you have easy access to Uranium for this device.
