The PB-X150 Xenon Container is a small fuel tank filled with xenon gas.

Usage

The container's only use is to provide xenon gas to the IX-6315 "Dawn" Electric Propulsion System, since it is the only part that can utilize xenon. The container stores 720 units of xenon with a mass of 0.1 kg per unit of xenon. There is also a radial tank with only 405 units of xenon, the PB-X50R Xenon Container.

Product description

Although most of the Probodobodyne staff couldn't pronounce "Xenon", when told how to say it correctly, they all agreed it sounded super-cool - and everything possible should be done so it could be used as a fuel, no matter the cost.
