Grinder trouble

[totte1015]

Trying to get a mob grinder going, but it doesnt seem to co-operate:

I have red wire going from it to a lever to get redstone signal on when I dont want the grinder to be enabled.

But it stopped completley, it does not do anything even with redstone off, and I checked several times, RF is full, it is getting power...

What can be the issue?

ADD: It seems to randomly stop the animation for the grinder, and dont react to anything, only replacing works

maybe a stray redstone signal?

The grinders turn off if the invent slot they try to output to is empty

Do you have sufficient power, and more importantly are you piping items out? If an item gets jammed and is not pulled out the grinder will not function.

Holy crap im a stupid fuck

Forgot the item conduit...

Is there a way to get the items into the AE system without occupying a whole channel?

If you have a me interface nearby you can pipe the items into that and it will auto-import iirc.

Yes! Even better!

No problem. AE2 is interesting... Makes you think though.
