Steve Raptor Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 The conductive ones has less severe decor penalty (although its still large)...

zergologist Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Simple. The joint plate for the heavi watt wire (Conductive) is 100 kg less of metal, and doesn't harm decor as badly Link to comment https://forums.kleientertainment.com/forums/topic/95298-heavy-wire-vs-heavy-conductive-wire/#findComment-1082292 Share on other sites More sharing options...

0xFADE Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 There is a late game point where you transition to unrefined metals being scarce. It is also significantly less ugly. Mainly the distance of the debuff is reduced.

hacksaw12 Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 Once you reach the space biome, you have an almost limitless supply of refined iron. At this point it might be a good idea to rewire any heavy watt wire, since deconstruction returns 100% of material, to reclaim the unrefined metal.
