Not to take away from your job, as that is one FINE cap!!! /salute!
But w/ cap OL3 running, I get by with a level 2s in my Awing and JSF for the nice low mass that they provide. The only way I can drain them is when I use shunt4.
My Heavy X has a nice REd level 6 in it that is about 1200 energy and 45 in the recharge.
Despite my personal preferences, GREAT JOB!

I totally agree about OL3 and lower mass is always best
My Krayt is my primary ship and I keep her fully loaded with 3 Level 8 guns plus my level 7 gunner weapon and missiles so even with OL3 the extra energy storage of the level 6 cap comes in handy when I use WO3 and CTSS3. BUT.....I now have JSF, Grievous, Vaksaiand Tie Royal Guard Interceptor deeds which all can benefit from the lower mass......so I plan on working on level 2 caps next. Just hope I can have the same kind of luck as I had with this one.

As a reference for level 2 and level 4 caps...both are good for JSF. My level 2 cap is around 1100 mass, has 900+ energy w/ a recharge of 39 or 40. The best level 4 I did had a recharge around 44 w/ 1100 energy w/ a mass of 2700.
Good luck and let us know your results.

Some people would say that you don't need a capacitor with that much energy, but they just don't understand the serious RE enthusiast. Excellent Cap man.

There can never be enough Energy on a Capacitor thats your last line of defence when all other things start to fail.. (read "sheilds are going down too fast...")
Very nice Capacitor.

I beg to differ that you'll never use that much energy...though you may never need to power your guns with that much, it's really handy in powering your shileds through shunt. I plan on experimenting with Weapon overcharge IV in my Krayt, and a good cap like this is indicated. I also keep hoping that the Devs will recognize that a single YT1300 with a crew of 3 is way inferior to any 3 fighter ships with with a crew of 1, and start making weapons and capacitors that are more in line with a ship that weighs 5M tons.

Had fun putting this one togther. Original energy was 1270 on the looted level 6 cap.

i must say that as long as the energy of the cap is over 1100 im happy.
i want recharge ov over 50. my cap have recharge of 52. helps alot when you have to shunt alot. and my 2 lvl 8 and 1 lvl 7 dont manage to use up the power. the recharge is too fast

Thanks to everybody for all the nice comments. I have already placed that cap in my Krayt and its a pleasure not worrying about keeping shields up with CTSS and still firing all 3 guns at same time.
Now since I just looted a level 2 cap with 1019 energy I just need to findone with a high recharge rate and I will be set to RE it for my JSF!

Nice capacitator.
Although many ships can get by with a lesser capacitator (especially if using RE'd level 8 reward guns), it's always nice to use extra mass to put something with a nice bit of excess in there, just for the sheer feeling of power.
Congratulations, that thing will make Capacitator To Shield Shunt 4 even more powerful, and your guns aren't going to be running out of power soon .

That cap would go so well in my Adv. Xwing. Perfect for cap to shield shunt and could never drain the three guns

Very nice Capacitor.
Any experianced pilot would agree with that, the shunt to shield will be awsome with this capacitor. If you think this recharge is higher then you need i'll have to disagree, i use 3 weapons on my m22 krayt that drain my 50 reg 1k capcapacitor pretty fast without capacitor overcharge 3.
