All neutralizers have a similar set of attributes. The different sizes of neutralizer differ significantly, but they are fairly consistent across meta levels. Besides fitting considerations, the only attributes that change from meta 0 all the way to commander modules is the range and the amount of energy neutralized. The cycle time is consistent (6 seconds for small neuts, 12 seconds for medium, and 24 seconds for heavy) as well as the energy 'cost' to neutralize (45 GJ for small, 150 GJ for medium, and 500 GJ for heavy). Therefore, at each size higher meta modules are more efficient: meta 0 modules destabilize as much as their activation cost (100% efficiency), and it trends up to meta 5 (tech II) and higher modules at 120% efficiency. Using the heavy neut example a Tech II neut would neutralize 600GJ with its 500GJ activation cost. The range for modules from meta 0 to the highest are: small from 5,250m - 7,350m; medium from 10,500m - 14,000m; and heavy from 21,000m - 39,200m. | All neutralizers have a similar set of attributes.

So with these capabilities in mind, if you are within range of a target and activate an energy neutralizer the activation cost will immediately be deducted from your capacitor and the neutralization amount will be deducted from the targets capacitor (test and verify). Each cycle time if still within range this will be repeated for as long as you have capacitor to run it. Pretty simple, right? | So with these capabilities in mind, if you are within range of a target and activate an energy neutralizer the activation cost will immediately be deducted from your capacitor and the neutralization amount will be deducted from the targets capacitor (test and verify).
