ok, so i think i've figured it out. I was wrong. So the set up for the most recent test i ran was this... bat box at 100%, an empty furnace, and wires placed after the box was charged. This was done for all trials trial 1 had 0 wires and resulted in 3.5 unsmelted trial 2 had 1 wire and...

But the energy isnt lost at all then. It just remains in the wires.

And, ratchet, im not testing energy usage; im testing for energy loss, so using it isnt really the best way to go unless you know all of the other constants in the equation, which, i dont. If you know how much a batbox holds and how many J per cobble, then go for it.

I was testing voltage because electrical potential means there has to be power in the system. In a closed system, if some of the original enrgy were to be lost, and not replaced, the overall potential should lower, right? So when i tested it, it did not increase nor decrease, even when i added...

No, it does not. Today, after posting my question, i did some testing to see if you actually did lose power or not. When i tested the difference in energy between just one full batbox and one full batbox wired to an empty one, the total voltage was the same. No matter how long the wire was, the...

Hey omicron, i read this entire thread, but i still dont understand how you get a loss of energy with the longer wires. I understand how you get a loss of power, but not a loss of energy. Could you, or anyone, explain how this occurs?
