Thanks for that, I missed it. I was guessing they were for TIE fighters, where the "wings" join the body.

Ah, it just clicked. Thanks for taking the time to explain it :)

> The power is traveling down the conductor in a waveform. Like a wave. So even though the charge carrying particles are moving back and forth, it is still delivering energy to the electrons on the other side of the circuit.

Damn it, I was following along until you said that. Can you explain how power moves in a wave in only one direction when the current and voltage is alternating?
