I have a BatBox wired through copper insulated cables to two solar panels (Yes I'm inputting to the correct side) and the BatBox is not getting any power. Both solar panels show that they working to their full extent. The BatBox's output isn't cabled up to anything, so it isn't draining power. Any suggestions?
BatBox Not Working

How long is the cable? Try using tin cable.

It's only like 5 or 6 blocks long, it should definitely be working. I just tried switching it to glass fibre instead, and now it's working fine. So it looks like it's instead more a bug with the copper cable I guess?
-
If it's 6 blocks, it doesn't work. If it's 5 blocks, I'm not sure, but I think it doesn't work.
-
Huh, ok. I could swear I've done some that long before. Has that changed in recent versions of IC2? I've only recently started using the newest version.
-
I don't think anything regarding this changed in the last few versions...

Ok I must be crazy then. Thanks

Also use tin cables, they have the same loss as glass fiber (40/39 blocks) but are much cheaper (note that they can handle as many solar panels as you can fit, not 5 or 6. This is due to the way EU packets work).
