Power converters?

[Jordan Funk]

With this new update there is a power converter tab with 12 new blocks, does anyone have a link to how these work? Ive tinkered with them for a while and thought I would ask the community

I've experimented a bit with these and here's what I've found.

First place an Energy Bridge. Then place next to it at least one energy consumer (to input energy of any kind) and at least one energy producer (to output energy of the desired type).

Right click on the energy bridge to see what connections have been made and how much energy is currently in the system (bottom line, "% CHG").

I've found that the BuildCraft producer does output into wooden conductive pipes, it powers adjacent BC machines, and it also outputs into the new redstone energy conduits.

The Universal Charger can also be placed adjacent to an Energy Bridge. It will automatically charge all IC2 items you have on you (including worn armor) when you stand on it. It also charges all items in a chest you place next to it.
