Nuclearcraft Basic Voltaic Pile Amperage #241

Nuclearcraft Version: 2.14c-1.12.2 (2.14c) Pack Version: 2.2.0

Problem: I tried to run 2 machines at the same time directly from the Voltaic Pile, the furthest machine starts running out of power.

I am using 4x Tin Cable, pile is set to output on that side. The furthest Machine is an ore washing plant being 4 blocks away (4 eu/t power loss using tin cable) Running a Centrifuge and an Ore Washing Plant (Cassiterite) at the same time.

To reproduce: charge a basic voltaic pile set a side to output run 2 machine simultaneously on the said side connected with a tin cable or equivalent LV cable) one will run out of power while running

Reasoning: I'm guessing each side of the voltaic pile only outputs 1 amperage of EU or (a result I doubt) it's because of the rf loss that led to power running out.

Request: The quest book wasn't too detailed nor is there any wiki that explains how the output of the voltaic pile work, if it only outputs 1 amp per side I probably would have delayed the crafting for late LV - early MV when I need the RF conversion. I made it expecting to output at least 4 amp of power per side but then I discovered this problem.

I believe it's true that the batteries from Nuclear Craft can only output 1A per side. Since if you connect 1x tin cables to two output sides of the Voltalic Pile, the cables burn. I recommend using a higher tier Voltalic Pile and then use a voltage transformer for a 4A output.
