A 1250mm long, lightweight version of the laser welder, the Portable laser welder unit is similar in many ways. It does not, however, use an internal power pack; it is designed to be powered from a standard laser rifle backpack power source, a feature that makes it a favored tool, for starship crews loathe to carry a multitude of different pieces of equipment and power sources. Standard power settings keep the welder in operation for 25 minutes; full output uses up power within 5 minutes. It cannot be linked to outside generators. If used in combat treat it as a laser carbine. The weight does not include the weight of a power pack.
