Blaster Gas costs caused by the lengthy series of wars throughout the galaxy. For centuries people have had to carry dozens, if not more, gas canisters into battle in order to remain effective throughout prolonged engagements. Losses, damages, replacements, and defective modules have cost the Galaxy untold billions of credits of Tibanna gas over the centuries, as well as being inconvenient to carry so many canisters for soldiers in the field. During the Clone Wars, BlasTech innovated the DC-15s Side Arm, but its cost did not permit its use in the wider market and so it was primarily the weapon of choice for the Clone Commandos, the Grand Army of the Republic’s special forces division.
Again, during the Imperial Era and Galactic Civil War, BlasTech attempted another weapon with a rechargeable cell built to work in combat with the Bryar Rifle which also featured a charge up system to increase the potential stopping power of the weapon at the cost of readily available ammunition.
Later, after the Gulag Plague, BlasTech tried again with the Plug N Fire style Power Cell which was designed for the purpose of unifying the type of Power Cell used by BlasTech’s many blasters into a single model that could be loaded in any of their weaponry. Unfortunately, the trend never seemed to catch on. Following the Great Galactic War of the Post-Gulag Era, BlasTech tries again, with a new line of Auto-Replenishing Gas Cartridges which follow a similar function as the DC-15s and the Bryar to refill the canister when its contents are below maximum capacity. The process from empty to full is usually a bit longer than a particular weapon system’s standard reload time, but you don’t have to carry extras anymore, so…

- Various Models made for many Energy Weapons
Material:
- Durasteel
- Diatiumhttps://starwars.fandom.com/wiki/Diatium
- Gas Cartridge Components
- Auto-Replenishment: The AR-Series Gas Cartridge is designed to replace the need to carry dozens of reloads worth of blaster gas. To remove the need for all these reloads or for ammunition to be dropped for soldiers on the field, the AR-Series simply replenishes itself when some or all of its contents are expended in the fury of combat. The product line includes compatible models for most Hand-Held Firearms and weapons not designed to draw power off a reactor or generator.
- AutoFill: The AR-Series fills back up when not in use or empty over time, usually taking only a little longer to refill from empty than simply replacing the Gas Cartridge from the respective weapon.
- One For Every Model: BlasTech was careful to make sure their models were supplied first, but sells AR-Series cells to fit other manufacturer’s weapons at a premium.
- Longer: It takes a little bit longer for the cartridge to refill itself than it would to simply slap a new one into place. This is an unfortunate problem across every specific model for any particular weapon system. While some weapons are still quite quick, it is a noticeable increase in “reload” time compared to standard reloads.
