So, Why didnt they try to steal more then just one ZPM, I am pretty sure they could have stolen more then one ZPM, especially since they uploaded the fix to reactivate the beat on the wraith program, I am sure they could have stolen a few more ZPMs on the way. After all it only took a few seconds to get the first one.

Spoiler:And then once they had the zpm and got back to the jumper the plan changed to tampering with the replicator base code again...

Integrabyte is correct, also Atlantis required one ZPM to have the sufficient power to enter a hyperspace window, so stealing other ZPM’s increases the chances of being detected and captured.
Yes during theOriginally posted by Darkdreams View Post“reactivate the beat on the wraith program”
So either way, it’s a risk!
They have two now, so for what it’s worth its better then one!
And it's not like they need three, they build the Midway station in order to connect the two galaxy's (for the connection between Earth and Atlantis), to conserve power from both ends and they barely use shields and cloak besides emergencies.
so, everything seems fine they way it is, well thats my perspective anyways!

Also being smart means maximizing your opprotunitys it doesnt mean your being greedy, Sorry but ZPM's are a prized object, if they have the chance to get another while doing another objective they are not being greedy they are maximizing their time and objectives.
Dumb is letting go an opportunity to accomplish more then just your main objective.
Like I said if another ZPM was in an easy access on the way to the central core they could have grabbed it. Its all about thinking ahead now Weir may have been limited as to being new to the connection to the replicator collective so that is also a factor.
Oh and I doubt earth can have too many ZPMs the more the better, more ships with good power source and backups on hand.
I do have a feeling that Atlantis will be getting some new ships soon based on the last episode. well see though
