Power cell

The diatium power cell in Kylo Ren's lightsaber

"Power is in limited supply in these parts. I need new power cells for my lantern and other appliances."

―Obi-Wan Kenobi's thoughts while living in exile on Tatooine

Power cells, or generators, were a component found in many weapons and droids,

Resistance droids often operated for unusually long periods of time without recharging and thus were equipped with extended-usage power cells.
