Copper cable not transfer more than 2 blocks energy?

    Hi everyone i got a problem


    i placed an batbox and wired it directly to an solar panel like this


    :Solar Panel: :Cable: :Cable: :Cable: :Batbox: but the batbox get no EU.



    if i place it like this then it works.


    :Solar Panel: :Cable: :Cable: :Batbox:



    so this means that i cannot transfer EU furter than 2 blocks.


    hopefully you can understand this.

    The normal Solar Panel outputs 1EU/t.


    That mean the packets sent by the Solar Panel have the size of 1 EU.


    Insulated Copper Cable loses 0.2EU per Block traveled.
    That means in your case you lose 0.6EU and only 0.4EU reach the batbox. So not a single 1 EU packet reach the batbox.


    Use instead tin cable for solar wiring. EU can travel there 40 blocks without any loss.

    @above EUs don't work like that, they can only subtract by a minimum of 1 EU like the tin cable that you mentioned.

    Is the answer to this question no?

    oops sorry for the double topic's.


    something happend when i created this topic.


    i tried it with tin cables but it didn't work. is there an other way to transer energy over a longer distance?
