I've looked for those fusion reactors but couldn't find any closer than 1 Au. Instead, I attach a capacitor to the electrodes in the chamber and fire the gun without a projectile, the energy generated charges the capacitor so for the next shot I can discharge the capacitor which powers the fan for like half an hour.

Ahh - its good your using Quimicals and not Chemicals to create electricity! They are much safer when in close proximity to a fusion reactor!
