It can deliver 1.21 gigawatts of pure energy directly to the nearest unfortunate foe. In higher power levels, multiple targets can be tracked independently. It also has auto-locking and a slow overheat rate. Auto-locking, however, can also lock on targets that don't deal damage to bosses. Its other disadvantage is that it's very weak on low power levels.
It's available from Chapter 3 in Revenge of the Yolk, and from Chapter 2 in subsequent games. It is available from the start in Universe.
Pros
Auto-locks on enemies and deals continuous damage.
Can target multiple enemies at higher power levels, unlike other auto-lock weapons.
On top of being able to auto-lock onto multiple enemies, it's beams of lightning can chain onto even more targets in Chicken Invaders Universe. Further extending it's ability to kill crowds of targets precisely. Damage reduces with each additional target hit by the chain.

Its price in the galactic shop is 150 , and upgrades cost 4350 in total, with each one costing more than the previous one. Without upgrading, it weighs 410kg and uses up 45 KW of energy. After fully upgrading, it weighs 705kg and uses up 555 KW of energy.
