Zaps Converter
by LobsterJonn
Zaps Converter is a Forge utility with one block that turns Forge Energy into Zaps for FTBIC machines.
What it does
A single converter block takes Forge Energy on one side and outputs Zaps on the others, feeding adjacent FTBIC machines, transformers and battery boxes. How much power leaves the converter is set by the voltage of whichever block receives it, so an input that a machine cannot take can overload that machine. The conversion rate is configurable, with a default of 4 FE per Zap. The mod is published for Forge only, for Minecraft 1.19.2, and runs on client and server, so both the server and every player need it. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source.

What the author says
The converter takes in Forge Energy from the input side, and outputs Zaps to adjacent FTBIC machines, transformers and battery boxes. This block's energy output is dependent on the voltage level of the accepting block, it does not overload the accepting machine.
