Never mind, it doesn't seem to have much effect!
Odd that... but I do have to go out and re-adjust myself each time, which usually entails hunting a few bounty-hunters.

With all of that stuff sapping your energy I would also say the Naval Energy Unit is also a must have. Even though it takes a bit of time to acquire.

I agree that the Naval Energy Unit is quite useful. Especially if you have a certain classified piece of equipment... that can be such a power hog sometimes!
