A capacitor bank was an energy storage unit. Rows of capacitor banks were used in the inner mechanisms of turbolasers. The energy stored in the capacitor banks was converted into charged laser beams via the weapon's laser actuators. The storage capability of the capacitor banks allowed the turbolaser to fire rapidly.
