Hello, sorry for my bad English,

The Portable Generator can take Gasoline but consume 5 mb / tick and produce 256 RF/t.
But the Gasoline Bucket in JEI indicate 160 RF/t during 6000 ticks.

Portable Generator : 1000 / 5 = 200 ticks at 256 RF/t = 51200 RF.
Gasoline Bucket inside another generator : 6000 ticks at 160 RF/t = 960000 RF.

Conclusion, the Portable Generator generates about 18 times less energy than any other generator in the game.
According to me, there is a problem in the default config, or I'm wrong?

Thank you in advance for your help.

Tested with Capacitor from EnderIO, the Portable Generator generated 51200 RF when the Compustible Generator from EnderIO generated 960000 RF from the same Gasoline Bucket.

I suggest modify the config to make that the Portable Generator consume only 1 mb/t and produce 960 RF/t.
And maybe not 1024 RF/t to be consistant with other generators in the game. (multiple of 8)
Don't forget that Immersive Engineering Cables is subject to energy lost.

Edit : In order to fix that problem, I changed the config of the Portable Generator for that :

    generation {
        # List of Portable Generator fuels. Format: fluid_name, mb_used_per_tick, flux_produced_per_tick
        S:fuels <
            gasoline, 1, 1024
         >
    }

I think it's the max it can produce, because 1 is the minimal number possible and the Portable Generator doesn't accepte HV cable so 1024 is also the maximum energy it can output with MV cable.
