Hello! I'm trying to replace my extensive Mekanism power network, which is lagging the server to pieces according to the admins, with RF. So to do so I'm trying to make HV Solar arrays, run them though Power Converters to turn the EU into RF, tesseract that from the desert Myst world (so sun 24/7) back to my base in the Overworld. Well there are a few problems. First the RF Producer won't go over 9kRF, that's with two EV Consumers (Well, UV, when I put the second EV Consumer onto the Bridge it popped right back off even though it's being fed by an MFSU, so 2k out max, had to go to an UV Consumer) feeding a single bridge to a single RF Producer. So when I added the third MFSU to EV Consumer it didn't get any higher than that 9kRF output. So I put a second RF Producer on the bridge to a second Tesseract and the second RF Producer put out 0RF and the first was still putting out 9kRF. So I moved it over a few blocks, the 5 HV panels to MFSU to EV Consumer to a second Bridge to the second RF Producer to the second Tesseract, Same result, 0RF output. I changed the two Tesseract frequencies (On the second bridge and in the Overworld on the second Tesseract feeding the Resonance Energy Cell I use as a backup in case of power failure or to smooth out any sudden spikes in power usage.) in case there was some sort of feed back. Nope. I can't produce over 9kRF with Power Converters. Anyone know why or know of another system that will be efficient and server friendly at making RF from EU?

Just use redstone conduits. The energy isn't causing lag, the universal cables you're most likely using with Mekanism, are the culprit. There's no real need for that overly elaborate setup or for you to need power converters at all. Redstone conduits from Thermal Expansion will solve the problem.
And don't forget paragraphs, that text is hard to read.

Wow, redstone energy conduits can accept EU now?
