not mesecon wires: while the latter will only transport information
(on or off state), the former will be able to transport energy, which
is what we want.

switching station is expensive: You will need two cables, two copper
ingots, four cast iron ingots and a LV transformer. I'm hearing you
saying "Cast iron? What's that?", so let me explain a bit.

In technic, iron has several forms: the first one is wrought iron,
which is basically iron, in its ingot form. The second one is cast
iron, which is an alloy of iron and carbon, which high carbon
which is basically pure iron, in its ingot form. The second one is
cast iron, which is an alloy of iron and carbon, with high carbon
content. To get it, just smelt again an ingot of wrought iron; the
carbon in the coal will alloy with the iron and form cast iron. There
are two other forms of iron, which we will see later.

machines relative to the wires has no effect at all.

watch the battery box slowly fill up! Some recommandations: you should
use coalblocks instead of raw coal to power the generator, and when
you will have a macerator ready, use coal dust - it's a lot more
efficient than coal.
