Does PE of the radioactive actually make harvestors last longer?
It seems the same with a PE 100 vs. a PE 900
yes.. pe is imperative for miners.... a pe of 1000 is equal to 2 real power units when deposited in a harvesgter.... a pe of 500 is equal to 1 real power unit. the formula is PE/500 to figure how much real power you get when you deposit it in your harvester.
anything below pe500 basically sucks big donkey dickus.

You learn something new everyday. So one would assume that anything with a decent PE level would have a higher value? I just put 10k of 900 PE in my Vendor for 5cpu....

One would assume since higher PE's are like uber minerals. It's like selling uber steel for more than grind steel.. but alot of power brokers still use flat pricing and sell it all at the same price.
i use PE/500 x 1.5 = sales price

Next time you hear some idiot spew crap about resources being 1 to 2 cpu on their server, please remember this post.

Corbantis has a nice class 6 radioactive right now. There are some massive fields (70-80 extractors)of fusions and heavies working over the spawns. The rads have a high OQ as well as a high PE.
Does the high OQ make the rads better for JTL related items?

Not that much biggus. Anything below PE 500 will act as 1 unit of power.

ah, yes... i suppose I was unclear on that... was moreso referring to the 500's and low 600's as being crap compared to what is possible to spawn.
wind and solar are also 1 real unit of power in harvesters.

It really had nothing to do with YOU. It's a commentary on all the people that CONSTANTLY spout nonsense about resources selling for 1 or 2 cpu (they like to say 1 cpu a lot) so they can get crafters to adjust their prices down and make products to sell for zero profit.
Again, you sold this for 5 cpu, which is your right. I commented on the fact that resources do NOT sell for 1 cpu or even 2 cpu on most servers if they are above-par or outstanding, to say the least.
We recently had 1000 OQ Tatooine fiberplast on Tempest. Some gave me a rash of crap over the fact that I said it should sell for 6 cpu minimum in spawn. There's only so much of a resource to use. Supplies do run out. That value of the 1000 OQ under the CURRENT crafting experimentation rules is beyond compare.

You quoted something I wrote with the word IDIOT in it. Therefore if I wrote it then it does have something to do with me.

My 'Right'. We are PLAYING a GAME right? Does it really matter whatsomeone sells something for? People take this GAME far to seriously sometimes. It really does remove the enjoyment for other players when you are pointed out on the forums because somebody doesn't like how you play the GAME.

Hehehehehe....
Some people who post on the forums get so upset because of one sad little point. This game is their life. Thats why they get upset if you play different from the way they think you should. (This is referring to some of the posters on the forums, not all.) Everyone can talk and complain, some just take it a bit too personal.
WH is where I play. Recently got into stocking some radioative on my vendor. 1-2 cpu is laughable for energy. Even >500 stuff should be placed a little more than that. Energy has turned into my main profit center and even 3-5 cpu helps. Not one to agree with selling for 30 cpu I have seen on other vendors, but a small increase in price is understandable. I'm a generous vendor. I try my best to keep profits low but I am running a business. A business is to make money after all. Even for 1k PE, I wouldn't charge over 10 cpu. Doesn't take much to cover cost of harvesting it and I really frown upon gouging people in time of need. Though I am not trying to tell people how to play or sell. Do what you will, just don't expect me to give you a cookie and say 'good boy.'
Enjoy,
