Ahem... Can't figure out the amp/volts thing with GT (and how to wire things properly). Can someone give me a good link or a good insight on this?
This page is probably best to read thru for info:

I just think of each amp as a multiple of the EU/t. LV Steam Turbines output one amp, so they're 32 EU/t x 1. But if you have 4 of them, then you have 32 EU/t x 4 (but don't do the multiplication). 4 packets of 32 EU/t. If you run the 4 into a GT Transformer, that's where you can multiply them together. 32 EU/t x 4 = 128 EU/t x 1, so one amp out.
If you use battery boxes, the key concept is that each battery can supply one amp... so a 4-battery buffer box full of batteries can provide 4 amps. 9 battery box can supply 9 amps. Obviously you need to match the output with cable. For a 4-battery LV buffer you should be using 4x Tin Cable in case all 4 amps ever travels thru the cable at once. 2x cable could melt and burn up. A 9 battery box requires 16x cable, altho you could use 8 batteries instead of filling it with 9, and then use 8x cable.
I use 4-battery buffers with 4x cable. This allows me to run 4 of my 1-amp LV machines at the same time, which is generally all I need. I have 4 LV Steam Turbines into a 4-battery buffer box, then I have 4 lengths of 4x Tin Cable, then another battery buffer. I repeat this over and over, ending up with a long line of machines. I can fit 8 machines between the buffer boxes - 4 in front of the tin cable on the floor, and 4 more on top of the cable. Because I have something like 6 buffer boxes with 4 batteries each, I have a lot of EU power stored up in reserve too, which is nice to have.
If there's more questions, just ask. Same concept applies to MV or EV.
