TheWoWDBNot related to the quest at all, but this is a reference to Star Wars: A New Hope. Luke Skywalker's uncle asks him to clean the droids he just bought, and Luke's whiney protest was: "But I was headed to Toshley's station to pick up some power converters!"
These guys at Blizz are fun. Keep on truckin!
Quest

A World of Warcraft quest in Blade's Edge Mountains. Facts and objectives from the current retail game data.

You will find them on the ground in the encampment located at approximately 57, 57. Open the power converter, use your item on it, then kill it. See screenshots for a visual.
When you click the Electroelemental, don't use the quest item on it immediately. Their damage goes up quite a bit once encased in the bubble. Instead, take them down to 50% health, THEN use the quest item.
Much easier and quicker that way.

Description
Those dumb ogres at the Bladespire Outpost to the north have been raiding our power converters! And you're going to get them back for me, sort of. No doubt, with their big, clumsy hands, the ogres have damaged the converters. So, what I want you to do is release the energy from them and then use this protovoltaic magneto collector on the resultant electromental to encase it. It'll likely be sore with you, so you'll need to 'kill' it while it's contained in the magneto sphere.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- There Can Be Only One Response
There can be only one response to this... this, DEFILEMENT of the souls of our ancestors! <name>, if you would aid us to restore the souls of our honored dead to their rightful place, go back to Razaan's Landing.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Ride the Lightning
We haven't kept the use of the Zephyrium Capacitorium under budget. But, it occurs to me that the serpents of the Scalewing Shelf to the east have a lightning breath and glands that we can make use of.
