A Photon Charger is a commonplace restorative beacon found in many places within Phantasy Star Universe, both in Story Mode and Network Mode.

It's appearance is simple - a floating cube that shifts through a range of colors (though is usually remembered as blue) that "stands on one point".

It's function is particularly simple - for a meseta payment directly linked to the amount of PP needed, a player can restore the entire PP gauge for a weapon of their choice, or all weapons.

The exact meseta cost required for such a charge is unknown. Some players believe that recharging a weapon with more stars increases the cost per PP restored, while others believe this is a misconception caused because "greater" weapons have larger PP gauges to fill.

Photon Chargers are located in lobbies (there is at least one in each of the planetary cities) and [[Outposts]] (there is at least one in every outpost). They are often seen alongside [[Universe Transporter|Universe Transporters]].

There are also some Photon Chargers located within missions themselves. There is always one located immediately before a boss warp, there is one located before sub-bosses in certain missions, and occasionally there is one located within the mission itself (the most-known examples of this are Mad Creatures and Sleeping Warriors).
