if you have 2 of the same consoles will it double the power or it is just a waste to have and just say with all different ones

Yes you double the "power" but as I understand you only double the number of what you get from the first one.

Let's say you have the value 100.000 with NO consoles and you add a console with 20% you get 20% of 100.000 added to your "power" value, 100.000 + 20.000 = 120.000
When you add a second console with 20% you get 20.000 value points more =100.000+20.000+20.000 = 140.000 (not 20% of 120.000)

Something like that.
The specific value you have on the different powers of the ship has to do with your ship Spec.

Hope you understand.

To add on to that, all weapon consoles (in particular) give buffs based on each weapon's base damage (i.e. not including weapon power, captain skills, BOff buffs), so the 22-26% buff you may see is a much smaller number than what you may be expecting.
