I've been away from Disco for a while so I need some clarification on this.

What's the cargo space range for installing it? As I recall it was up to either90 or 120, not sure about now.

How much time/fuel does it need to charge?

Will the charging cloak reset if it gets CD'd? (like it is with MKII cloak)

Not sure about cargo limit, but all bombers can use it. Takes 3 seconds to start cloaking, ~10 seconds to invisibility, consumes one unit of every fuel type per seconds. And yes.. simple cheap CD will write "Cloaking device off". Then you will be required to /cloak.. and be lucky to not get CD'd.

Cloaking Devices - It's not outdated as Cloaks haven't changed since their introduction.

If they haven't changed, that means that it can't be reset during charging by a CD (I'm talking about the light cloak), but the member above says it can. Where's the truth?

Erm, they can be disrupted by CD. Nothing else changed then.

Not only cloak charging can be disrupted by CD, but also if player had you targeted before you cloaked, he will still be able to continue CDing you while you are cloaked (until he target something other) so he will know approximately your position and will be still able to disrupt your cruise engines. It´s a bug but (ab)used quite often. Light cloaks aren´t as much useful as they should be because of this.

On a ragebreak. Or ragequit. Time will tell.

Abusing exploits is violation of server rules. This can be freely reported, unfortunately, many people are spamming CD on cloaked ships.
