Marraach Perkone Caldari State 0	Posted - 2016.01.30 17:09:06 - [1] - Quote Hi all, Am back to Eve after years and almost need to learn back everything. I am checking my Deimos fit and managing powergrid. Looking at cap booster, why would anyone use Medium Cap booster II over Medium electrochemical cap booster 1? Tech II cost way more than the other and requires more powergrid. Every other stats are the same. Is there any drawback I am missing for using medium electrochemical cap booster instead of the tech II version? Thanks

Looks fine to me, will not use the tech II version. Thanks

Well, because I prefer to pay 260k instead of 30-40M T2 heavy CB will fit an extra navy 800 booster, but that only applies to BS. A medium cap booster will only fit 1 800, no matter if its t1 or t2. Navy versions also use less room, so you can carry more in your cargo. Give Battlecruisers range to fullfil their Anti-Cruiser role - OP SUCCESS

It's better to use 3 Navy 400's, so 1200 boost, then reload time, rinse and repeat. If you live to see even one reload, you're talking about 50% more cap boosted, with less time spent on reloads. It adds up over a few cycles to a pretty substantial advantage.

With reload times and cycles the same, it turns out that 800's are just better. Mind blown "better" is subjective... it depends what your using the cap for and the situation.... Sometimes you dont need the full hit of the 800, and spreading the cap over time is "better" (3x 400's) No Worries

Sometimes you dont need the full hit of the 800, and spreading the cap over time is "better" (3x 400's) Yes, true. I have a PvE Proteus that I would still run 400's in, because of limited cargo space, and the fact I can carry 3 charges already loaded. I suspect that might apply to a lot of cruiser sized cargo bays. Up until now, I had assumed that 400's would also give me more cap, because of less reload time. But the chart I figured out yesterday shows that 800's have a better return after just 1 reload. Side note, edit: I seem to remember that rats used to drop cap booster charges, and I would get reloads from that out in null regularly. Not any more though.
