Accumulator

The  is an artifact found in S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Lost Alpha.

"The accumulator has a neat effect on small shrapnel: it disintegrates it before it can cause any serious wounds. But, like its name suggests, it accumulates something: electricity. When properly stimulated it can harness the ongoing current and unleash it when it cannot be accumulated any longer, in a deadly fashion."
