Beam Sabres:

The power of beam sabre is 0,38 megawatt. When used, the hilt emits a plasma source and uses the I -field to shape the blade. The amount of heat emitted by the plasma blade is so hot that it can cut through iron (useless when the host has anti-beam coating). Beam sabre can Recharge when out of power.
