You should only use one Empowering finish/Taking charge mods. Maybe one each, but you only really need one. They make you charged with light, but you need to run other mods to make use of those charges, for example: High energy fire.
Build Example: Use one of the Siphon mods (helmet) to generate Orbs, and then use Taking charge to become charged with light, then also use High energy fire on another armour piece.
