*at the highest efficiency roughly 30% of the gas you use will be lost to the pump to the canister and to the heat exchanger to the can so prepare accordingly.

*'''Work with friends.''' It has high setup and maintenance requirements, and your fellow atmos techs, engineers and toxins scientists are all valuable resources in your pursuit of very hot things.

*Although some gases may have high fusion power they might have too high specific heats to give you the tier you want, as a rule of thumb Stimulum, Nitryl, and BZ are all very useful for reaching higher tiers of fusion.
*Fusion requires ''Heat energy'' not ''Temperature'' meaning the more moles you can fit into an area, the lower the temp is for you to start fusion.
*It is recommended to have a sacrificial lamb preform the finale in an unused area such as space, if not be wearing radiation protection and have an excuse for the [https://tgstation13.org/wiki/Administrators gods] you are about to anger.
*It is intended to preform fusion in a canister but doing it in a pipe net or incinerator is possible.

*Heat exchanges are your friend for starting your reaction. Connect it to tritium burn chamber or canister to get the heat needed to start it.

*Typically gases with high power but also high specific heats like water vapor or pluxonium will become exponentially more efficient the more you use due to the average specific heat increasing less and less the more you use.
*Should you want to release a canister that you used for fusion in a room full of people, consider shooting it to break it open so you aren't right next to it.
