I am wondering if this system will work for charging crystals etc:
[MF]
Where [MF] is a mass fabricator, the MFE at the top is where you would put your crystals to charge, Iridium is empty space, and coal chunks are flooring, most of the system is underground
Would this system send power to the MFE at the top to charge and otherwise send power to the Mass Fabricator? If not, how can I change the system to do so?
EDIT: revised system
Question: Charging: Will this work?

Just put a Lever on the MFE heading to the Mass Fab, and remove the other MFE. Then the Lever'ed MFE will only pass along EU once its full, when the lever is activated.

UPDATED PICTURE
Read the picture again. I don't want to have to go underground to get my energy crystal. -
[MF]Simple fix ^ (only 1/2 of the power will go to the "crystal charging station" MFE though.)
[MF]^ With the MFE next to the Mass Fabricator being supplied with redstone power -might- make it work the way you intended (not sure though). [Also note: Cable length longer then 4]
The 100% effective solution would be to supply the "crystal charging MFE" with redstone and have its output go to the Mass Fabricator. (or look into the Power Systems add-on )
<Mass Fabricator
(Cable between MFE and Mass Fabricator optional) Then you could charge your energy crystals and get your UU matter in the same place (though I'm not sure how loud mass fabricators are now so noise might be an issue) .... If your charging MFE is next to a wall you could cheat the output to the mass fabricator through there and around the input cable and into the Mass Fabricator.

<Mass Fabricator
In this system, does the MFE only give power to the MF if there is no crystal/battery in the MFE? If so, that's what I'm looking for!
Or does it give energy to the MF if the MFE is full? -
If you apply redstone to a storage unit it only outputs power IF it's full.
When you place something in it would of course charge.

With NO redstone, would the MFE give power to the MF constantly, unless a crystal is put in the MFE in which case it will charge the crystal instead? that is what I am looking for.
