Tested it on Jupiter-Io at rank 5 with Sweeper, Deth and Laser Rifles.

Generally it seems to add the stated damage as fire damage, because since rifles had bullet damage and when buffed - they dealed like 3x damage to light infested.

First tested with Sweeper(Shotgun Spazz(90% AS)), Shell Compression(3rd shot)):

It reached the "overheat" after the first burst of 2-3 shots. If pre-buff the shots dealt like 1\8th of Charger's damage, post buff it was more like 1\3rd, so two shots to open it on charger and then it dies. The buff sometimes carries on to other targets, just as Sweeper's burst resets on kill. This really synergies well, if you build your Sweeper for killing sprees.

Second - Deth Rifle(Speed Trigger(60% AS), Shred(30% AS))

As expected, once it spins up(takes about 1 second) - the buff applies for the rest of the shooting, but resets if the spin-up doesn't carry on to the other target(if sentinel is too slow about it). Technically "overheating" is easier for Deth, but if it spins up on every target - it's not as good as for Sweeper.

As a conclusion, those who favor Deth for higher ranges(even with shit accuracy) will like this mod, because it will add a lot of damage and is a must-have if you equip your sentinel weapon for damage and not just CC. Sweeper users will likewise find it practical when their sentinels decimate everything in close proximity non-stop. It is a very good addition for the potatoed Sentinel.

Lastly, while it's pretty irrelevant, I've tested it with Laser Rifle(same AS mods as Deth)... Results were predictable. Due to the nature of short bursts with long delay - it rarely did actually overheat on second burst, but most of the time even firing on one target it still did same damage. So even if you for some reason use Laser Rifle - do not use this mod for the Sentinel, it will be a waste of mod capacity.

Hope it helped, maybe there will be more thorough and skilled testers who will reply and\or update the actual page with better summed up information.
