A repulsor-assist system, also known as a Repulsor-Assisted Lifting, was a type of armor attachment for laminate armor and other full-body armor suits. Using a series of miniaturized repulsorlift generators, located at the key joints of a suit of armor, a repulsor-assist system greatly increased its user's lifting capabilities. The attachment was common among factory workers and warehouse labor crews, and it gained some popularity among bounty hunters who needed to bring in heavy bounties. A repulsor-assist system cost 1,000 credits, and one notable model included the Guldak Heavy Industries Personal Repulsor Fitting.[1]
