Can i use more than one at a time? ... like shoot off two at once? And if so will they combine or will the bigger one override the smaller one. Or if i have two of the same size will only one work?
 
Each module can only fire one at a time (i think?) so firing multiple "at once" would require two modules. However, using two at the exact same time would be...well, hot.

I have my SCBs and Heat Sinks bound, so I don't need to have them in fire groups. My process is that I fire one, and watch the heat race up and when it gets to around 80% I fire another. This way I use two per heat sink, and if I wait five seconds after firing the first, then the second SCB will come from the same module as the first, which will be the largest.

Also, consider going with the "B" class SCBs. These have fewer MJ than the A class, but the B Class has one additional SCB than the A class, making the total MJ that the module can restore higher for the B class than the A class.

Yes... go to approx. 8:05 for demo

NB - For health reasons - specifically 'splitting sides' - please avoid watching my first attempts of using APAs in the rest of the vid [big grin] - can't be bothered to edit the SCB bit!

Basically, fire the first one with heatsink, then wait for heat levels to drop close to zero...then fire the other!

I sometimes run 3 on my Conda when I'm tanking a CZ.

I keep a extra SCB for well...just in case. Otherwise I always travel with 2.

Yes you can fire multiple at a time. Yes they combine. Heat generation also combines, though, so be ready for that.
