==Description==
 
The '''Extended-Range Small Laser''' ('''ER Small Laser''') focuses a powerful beam of light on targets that causes damage by overheating or melting the target.
 
 
 
As the name suggests, the Extended-Range variant of the [[Small Laser]] increases the power of the beam to project it to much farther ranges. The power necessary to facilitate the production of such generates an increased quantity of waste heat.<ref name="TMp226"/>
 
 
 
Unlike larger laser models, Small Lasers can be mounted on infantry, powered armor, or [[Elemental|Elementals]] due to their small size.
 
 
 
As with most Clan energy weapons, the Clans lack their own standard Small Laser.
 
 
 
== Models ==
