An Informational and Somewhat-Amusing Overview Made by Me:

A Well-Made Spotlight by the Amazing BeckBroJack:

By default, all E-Tools have the same effectiveness and durability as diamond tools. When they run out of durability, they become defective (same stats as iron, but with infinite durability) instead of breaking. Defective tools can be upgraded back into E-Tools by using a repair recipe. Depending on the settings you have assigned the tools using the ETData.txt config file, the recipe may be either a single redstone block or eight redstone blocks. Furthermore, depending on the same setting, tools may be repairable on an anvil with either redstone dust or a redstone block.

Energy Armor provides 20% more protection than diamond armor, but by default, has the same amount of durability.

The StandardToolRecipes.png file shows all of the tool recipes when the settings are set to inexpensive (default)

The ExpensiveToolRecipes.png file shows the recipes for if the tool settings are set to expensive (configurable)

The ArmorRecipes.png file shows the... armor recipes... (default, configurable)
