Burst explained it pretty well. You can think of the energy set as "borrowed" energy. It's like the credit card of weapon sets. It's always available, but you should only use it if you need to. If you use it too much, you end up with an energy deficit that has to be regenerated before you can cast again. The -2 regen on the high set is like a surcharge you pay whenever you make a "withdrawal," if you will.

I'm not sure if that helped or made it more confusing, but I figured it was worth a try.

As far as getting the +15 energy items, check this link. Scroll down to "Misc" and it will show you where to get +15/-1 focii for the various attributes. For the wand, it doesn't matter what attribute it's linked to or whether it's max damage because you won't be attacking with it. There are a variety of collector wands you can use, such as the Earth Wand from Sir Robert.
