PLEASE NOTE: THIS ITEM IS "NEW IN BOX" AND UNOPENED. The twenty third century Phaser co-designed by Jefferies and Roddenberry was standard issue aboard Starfleet vessels. Although primarily intended as defensive weapons, their power, design and flexibility made them useful for heating rocks, cutting through armour plating and even as a backup energy source capable of powering a small shuttle craft into orbit in an emergency.
This Original Series Phaser Universal Remote Control is not a toy: it is an advanced, gesture based universal remote control, designed to control home entertainment equipment such as TVs, DVD players, Blu-ray players and iPod docks, using infrared codes learned from conventional remote controls by the means of gestures rather than by pressing buttons. A total of nine different gestures and four separate memory banks enable the Phaser to learn up to 36 remote control functions. At the press of the trigger button, the Phaser pulses and produces one of nine different Phaser firing sounds (depending on the setting of the Phaser II dial), and has the power to instantly stun almost any TV without any setup required.
This Phaser is also a highly accurate prop replica designed using 3D laser scans taken of the last known hero prop used by the cast of Star Trek, The Original Series, in the 1960s.
