- Energy transfer modules are sneaky devices from the Dreamwave portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
To quell the extensive energy usage of the Transformer race, Shockwave created the energy transfer module (ETM for short). With it, a Transformer can draw energy from the core of Cybertron itself and the planet's inhabitants, bypassing the typical energon conversion process. With it, a Transformer has essentially unlimited energy to draw from.
However, the ETMs have an insidious function: to allow Shockwave to maintain the energies available to all those who are outfitted with them, while offering himself the lion's share of the energies.
