Floodlight
A Floodlight is an extremely powerful light that comes in many shapes and sizes, but is usually cylindrical (60 cm long with a 60 cm diameter). It is most often mounted on vehicles, larger robots, and installations.[1]
A floodlight must be powered by either powerpacks or parabatteries. One SEU is required every ten minutes of operation. A floodlight can cast a beam of light up to 600 meters. If it is directed at a character's eyes the character cannot see clearly and suffers negative modifier to all attacks made that turn.[2]
A floodlight costs 250 credits and has a mass of 5 kilograms.[3]
