The Purge Electrohammer is a large two-handed weapon composed of two metal shafts attached at the bottom and the top near a thin hammer-like striking head, with a cylindrical power cell attached to the base of one of the weapon's shafts. A deadly electromagnetic charge is run from the base of the weapon up the forward shaft and across the front of the hammer head, making the weapon capable of blocking a lightsaber. When the hammer-head is swung at the ground, it emits a powerful shockwave upon impact that can stun enemies. Some of these weapons were used by Imperial Purge Troopers during the Jedi Purge.
The handle of this weapon is equipped with a generator that sends constant electromagnetic pulses to the weapon's striking surface during use. While active, the striking surface of [this item] can parry lightsaber blades; however, the rest of the weapon is vulnerable to a lightsaber's plasma blade.
The internal components of this Purge Electrohammer has been modified with greatly dampened electrical components, making Purge Electrohammer completely resistant to sensors.
This Purge Electrohammer has been built using a locking, telescopic construction, allowing Purge Electrohammer to be carried on a belt.
