I'm pretty sure you recharge energy without dynamos, since I've fought off lots of ships with just a tail ion gun, fuel tanks, crew pod and engines, trying to build up cash for improvements.

We did. You did. Yes we can. No.

That is correct - there is some energy regeneration built into the precursor vessel. Dynamos make the energy regeneration more frequent. The number of dynamos vs. regeneration timeout is as follows:
0 : 10 1 : 8 2 : 6 3+ : 4
Each time you regenerate, the amount of energy you get is equal to the number of shiva furnaces + 1.
Furnaces going down, dynamos going across
\ | 0 | 1 | 2 | 3+ |
0 | 1/10 | 1/8 | 1/6 | 1/4 |
1 | 2/10 | 2/8 | 2/6 | 2/4 |
2 | 3/10 | 3/8 | 3/6 | 3/4 |
3 | 4/10 | 4/8 | 4/6 | 4/4 |
4 | 5/10 | 5/8 | 5/6 | 5/4 |
(There is no point at which additional furnaces have no effect.) Note the bold entries. They all reduce to the same value (1/2) and have the same total number of module slots (furnaces + dynamos). Below this, you should use all furnaces. At or above this, use 3 dynamos and the rest should be furnaces.
