The reed units work by adding 20% limit to your elemental cap but not 20% actual element. So if you had 270 element without the unit, you get capped to 250. But if you had exactly 250 element and you equip a reed unit, you're still at 250, you need to add the remaining 20%.
If you convert 270% element to another element that has a 270% cap, then it will work just fine - to do this you only need 2 reed units, 1 for the element you have and 1 for the element you transfer to.
