Battery Designation[edit]

If this battery designation is based on the black and yellow sticker on the Spartan Laser in the screenshot, I'd suggest removing the reference. That sticker type is all over lots of items. The graphic texture files in Halo games are often a 512px X 512px image with lots of various logos and they get used on all types of things. That's why the Warthog designation of M/AAV-20 (which is Warthog-specific) ended up on the Reach Mongoose...the Mongoose designation was not included in the texture file for UNSC vehicles so the Warthog designation was erroneously placed instead. The sticker in this article is not unique to the Spartan Laser, so why assume it's the designation of its battery type? ScaleMaster117 (talk) 14:35, 19 June 2013 (EDT)

It's from this Bungie article. Oddly, the text detailing the battery and the recharger is no longer in that article. Fortunately, a forum user managed to capture the entire content of the article in this thread. So, the information is there but not in the current article. I guess someone in Bungie did something to the article during the server migration, site redesign or during site maintenance. — subtank 14:57, 11 September 2013 (EDT)
