Except him strapping himself to the apparatus is not the point of debate, he drains the Massassi first which then empowers the apparatus unleashing his spirit from his body.
The ritual is essence transfer, Kun references this in the Jedi Academy trilogy.
You are also pointedly ignoring both of his prior drain feats, please recognize them instead of pretending they don't exist as they seriously contradict your interpretation.

He just mad that Revan>HoT is confirmed.
Yes, I am super mad. I've slipped into the fabled blackdeath trance of the woegothics, quaking all the while in the bloodeldritch throes of the broodfester tongues. I advise the members of my Complacency not to be alarmed, as they chronicle the event in tomes bound in the tanned, writhing flesh of a tortured hellscholar, with runes stroked in the black tears bled from the corruption-weary eyes of fifty thousand imaginary occultists.
But they fail to not be alarmed.
I make a halfhearted attempt to resist the anger. Alas, one is not easily shaken from the broodfester tongues.
They are stubborn throes.

Revan>Bane essence transfer.Not surprising though as Revan>Bane at everything.
Nope. even if that were true, there's one thing that Bane surpasses Revan on - Saber skill. 😮💨
But in keeping with the rules the OP stated, i'll stop derailing the thread and stay on topic.
Force powers is a bit hard to gauge, so i'm not touching that. But sabers definitely goes to Kun.

*looks around* That's what I was discussing.The apparatus was already an immensely powerful focal point of dark side energies.
I love how Exar Kun needs a huge ceremony just to do that when Revan does it with ease:
The fact I don't remember them either means they were laughable or as a ghost (his ghost feats are not being considered in the fight.) [/B]
Kun constructed all of the temples in the first place as focal points for HIS power:
"Kun seems to have built his primary Stronghold on this jungle moon. He enslaved the Massassi race to build all these temples as focal points for his power."
- Jedi Academy Trilogy Volume 3 - Champions of the Force
Exar Kun had no one to directly transfer to as was his original plan but the wall of light trapped his essence forcing him to latch onto his temples
You really should learn just to admit when you don't know, The Golden Sphere:
He invented a glowing golden sphere that trapped the children of the Massassi and allowed him to feed off their energies.
- The New Essential Chronology
The Dark Reaper:
Exar Kun had also constructed a Sith superweapon, the Dark Reaper, that was capable of drawing in the life energies of thousands of combatants. Ulic unleashed the Dark Reaper against hundreds of Republic troops on the outpost of Raxus Prime.
- The New Essential Chronology
As you can see Exar Kun is a top tier practitioner of Drain.

No, I really can't. Not a single one of those mentions him using drain on his own while not amped or using some weird power that frankly seems utterly useless in a fight.
And just because he may have created the dark reaper (contradicting sources FTW) does not necessarily mean he can use the power on a whim.

Bane has never beaten anyone above Bastila or Malak, he is a mediocre duelist who only beat Sirak and Fohargh after getting stomped by both. Bane doesn't deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as Revan, other than to say he needed Revan's knowledge or he'd be useless.

Provide evidence where Kun was amped, his temples act as focal points for his power not the other way around.
His drain feats are of his own power, provide me evidence to the contrary.
