    So I watched a bunch of videos about setting up the Radar Jammer. The wiki was really helpful with the equations and the proper way to setup enough power, that I am able to run the Radar Jammer non-stop.

    Interestingly enough, I thought this Radar Jammer was also suppose to jam other ships in the area? Just as soon as I changed sectors, my radar is flooded with pirates way over 2000 away, and they are all bailing towards me. I checked my Radar Jammer, it's still on and appears green with plenty of power. I wonder if I bought a defective model? :D

    The radar jammer only makes it so your ship does\'t have that diamond at the core. It is best used with a cloaking system to hide yourself completetly.

    So I played with the numbers until I could figure that 4 x 33 chained power reactors outputing 33,472 e/s. That gives me 89 squares to build with including my core with both Cloak and Jammer working infinately.

    So I put together my science lab... not very cozy - just the essentials.



    Unfortunately, it\'s a little top heavy. :P I placed a landing camera to help during planetary expeditions.



    .... so... serious? All that to keep my science projects under wraps... eh? I wonder if I could cloak a planet. :D



    Well in any case. After landing successfully on the planet, I didn\'t have enough thrusters on board to take off.

    To avoid detection from pirates all you need is cloak.

    Radar Jammer is for PvP.

    Way gayer than originally thought.

    Jammer also works on turrets, I think.
