Ideal for low power vehicles or for vessels that don't want the power draw of a full PBC, the Light particle beam cannon has enough delivered energy to deal with small asteroids and deter attacking ships.
The light PBC has a cut down structure to reduce its overall mass, making it a lightweight and cost effective weapons package, although not as rugged as a standard PBC.

Annotation 0013.001: Smith, Lemuel: "Ideal if you just want to scorch someones hull while they're blasting you. They don't draw much power though, which can be useful at times."
