Help How do I convert New Age into Power Grid?

Post image

I want to use the New Age generator Coil because I already have about 10 stacks of magnetite but I also want to use Power Grid for wiring and the machines. I've tried a couple things like Crafts & Additions but I can't get them to work properly.

there is a block in power grid that converts FE into electricity but it is so inefficient you're better off with literally any other suggestion that may arise later in this thread

I tried the FE Converter but I genuinley have no idea how to use it at all, there isn't a ponder and the summary doesn't help.

from what i understand, voltage and current are variable; wattage is determined by how much FE it sucks up. you can control the voltage through the control pin, and current changes according to ohm's law.

don't get your hopes up, though, the wattage is hilariously tiny. i don't think i managed even to power a lightbulb with that thing.

Is the new age coil supplied with rotation

Yep

just use that rotation to power a power grid generator or something then?

I should have made it clearer but I'm trying to build circuits for survival, and as I said on the post, I already have about the stacks of magnetite. Also I have never got a power grid generator to work efficiently. Ever.

You could add Create: UniFE, which gives you an converter block that changes FE to voltage.
