An ion smoke bomb was a type of smoke grenade that released a burst of ion particles along with its smoke payload allowing the grenade to effect droids as well as organics. Flux compressors were a key component in constructing ion smoke bomb. By 3 ABY,[2] a flux compressor had been stored in a smuggler hideout on a cliff overlooking Lake Amari on the Outer Rim Territories planet Akiva.[1]
