The Electrobaton is a one-handed blunt weapon composed of a black metal handle shaft with a switch and dial, and has a power cell attached to the base. Attached at the top of the weapon is a small extendable shaft through which a middling electromagnetic charge is run, allowing the blunt striking end to deliver a powerful stun on contact but is not strong enough to stand up to a lightsaber. Some of these weapons were used by Imperial Scout Troopers during the Jedi Purge.
