But even better: for the unbelievable case you managed to '''FULLY LOAD''' the ''MFE'', it will emit energy (ignoring redstone signals). This was done for the sake of preventing energy from getting wasted in uebercharged ''MFE'' 's.

This device can do it. Everything.

The MultiFunctionalElectric Transmitter is necessary for any big industrial workspace using cables and current. Why? Let me tell you of the amazing number of uses:

Any cable linked to the side faces of the MFE will transmit energy into it. The MFE itself will as well EMIT energy, through the top and bottom faces.

Even more, the MFE contains an integrated ENERGY STORAGE. Yes, that's right, it can effectively contain an amount of energy, comparable to 60 RE BATTERIES(or 10 Energy Crystals). The MFE will often not emit power if no power is requested of it (for instance, if it is just linked to a machine). However, it is possible to stop the MFE from emitting energy at all by powering it with redstone.

But even better: for the unbelievable case you managed to FULLY LOAD the MFE, it will emit energy (ignoring redstone signals). This was done for the sake of preventing energy from getting wasted in uebercharged MFE 's.

Last but not least, the MFE can act as an energy up- & download station in vast networks. You can pop an empty battery(or an empty Energy Crystal) in the upper slot and it will become charged until it's full or the MFE is out of energy. As well, you can put charged batteries(and charged Energy Crystals)into the lower slot to load up the MFE 's storage. That's technology, isn't it, HAYO!

Energy[edit]

Storage: 600,000 EU

Output: 128 EU/t

Known Bugs[edit]

The MFE Transmitter is known to misreport its current and maximum charge in multiplayer.

The maximum charge is misreported as 3,000,000 by the interface, although the device itself maintains the correct capacity of 60,000 EU.

The red bar illustrating percentage charge, due to the over-large maximum value shown by the interface, always appears empty.
