| The amount of heat produced is dependent on the individual module's heat damage value (visible in the attributes tab), modified by Thermodynamics skill level. The hull class it's mounted on seems to have no effect, although frigate-class modules produce significant amounts of heat and can burn out entire racks by themselves quite quickly, while battleship-class modules scarcely produce any at all and can be run for extended periods of time with excellent passive effects. For now let's establish some basic facts about heat damage, spreading, and mitigation. | The amount of heat produced is dependent on the individual module's heat damage value (visible in the attributes tab), modified by Thermodynamics skill level.

| - | Speed boost equal to or better than an HG snake set depending on ship mass. Great for interceptors and frigates when you need the speed to survive or to get a critical warpin, but it won't last long thanks to 1mn MWDs producing the most heat damage of any overloadable module, twice over. For already fast [[Covert Ops]] and [[:Category:Recon|Recon Ships]] it can mean near-invincibility when jumping into a gatecamp. For many cruisers and even some battleships, overloading your MWD can mean the difference between getting safely back to the gate and jumping out, or dying horribly 0.5km from jump range; never be afraid to overheat your MWD if you jump into a gatecamp, just don't assume it will give you the speed to burn ''out'' of the bubble when you otherwise wouldn't have a chance. | + | Speed boost equal to or better than an HG snake set depending on ship mass.
