| - A photon grenade is a short-distance incendiary weapon capable of delivering a powerful electromagnetic pulse. At low levels, they are capable of delivering a wide-area stun effect; at greater levels, they provide a lethal pulse. The grenades were delivered with a mortar. In the year 2269, the crew of the USS Enterprise used photon grenade mortars against the Sackers. (TOS novel: The Three-Minute Universe) In 2376, Taran'atar used photon grenades against Ethan Locken's Jem'Hadar soldiers on Sindorin. (DS9 - Section 31 novel: Abyss)
- In 2367, Lieutenant Commander Geordi La Forge suggested transporting photon grenades down to the underground Turkana City in order to incapacitate members of the Alliance, who were holding two Starfleet officers hostage. He noted that, set to minimum yield, the grenades would effectively stun their targets. (TNG: "Legacy" ) In the 31st century, Vaskan agitators attacked the Museum of Kyrian Heritage with photon grenades, after a back-up copy of The Doctor gave accounts that the Vaskans were not the instigators of the Great War, as the Kyrians had long maintained.
