you might have sorted it by now but have you tried right clicking the input with an empty hand ? have a look at this video for some help https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-JzUlbq1xEQ

you could try a magmatic dynmo hooked up to a lava fabricator with a heavy alu cable with a fluidic pipe joining the 2 up (i use this for my power), then have another fluid pipe out of the lava fab for what you need, i'm not sure how much you can take out before you start running low ive not tried it
