Economic Ramifications of Collector Jump on the Tramp Trade

I'm not too clear on how many options you can pick [on the Black Globe], or what adding options does to base TL or TL stage.

I logged this as errata, as well as a question about the task difficulty of powering a jump drive from a Black Globe, and the safety rating of the task attempt.
 
Deconstructing Collector technology...

They collect the exotic particles needed for Jump Drives to work.
They can also store them in some part of the device for at least seven weeks, possibly longer.

If that container is removable, it can then become a modular fuel tank and the ship no longer has to carry the "solar sail" around (or even very much of the accumulator unit).

Then, the ship can Jump with just charged capacitors and the bottle of exotic particles.

The method of charging the capacitors is up to you.
