A GNK power droid powering equipment
Power droids were unsophisticated droids that acted as ambulatory batteries, recharging vehicles and machinery.[1] They were equipped with a small, internal power generator and several plug-in sockets.[2]
Although they were extremely important to both military and civilian life, power droids were so commonly encountered in the galaxy that they often went unnoticed.[1] The GNK-series by Industrial Automaton and the EG-series droid by Veril Line Systems were popular power droids. Both were commonly referred to as "gonks" due to the low honking sounds they made. Another notable model of power droid was the PLNK-series power droid that held tibanna gas;[2] PLNK-series droids were commonly known as "plunk droids" due to their distinctive honking sound.[3]
