Is it possible to change the mode on a repeater or comparator with turtles?

No, by default turtles cannot "click". You could change the mode using a command computer (changing the nbt data) or I think there's a mod that allows turtles to click. No idea if the mod works though.

If you have thermal expansion you could yes an autonomous activator, the turtle could give it a redstone signal to say when to right click it.

Thank you. I'm trying to stick with as few mods as possible but the KnightPeripherals seams interesting.

Why don't you just have a computer instead of a repeater/comparator to replace them? you have much more control this way and can tweak things you can't tweak with vanilla redstone :P/>

repeaters comparators can 'extract' information from some blocks, such as the fullness of a chest, a turtle could measure this (with more accuracy) but it will take longer

edit: thanks for the correction eniallator

i'm pretty sure you mean comparators but in that case you can just have a comparator going into a computer and implement versions of the adding/subtracting signals. I was also talking about the places where you need comparators to do stuff like subtract/add signals or keeping signal strength :P/>
