{% tab title="Item Description" %}
Stun grenades are a disposable tool used to temporarily blind and stun anyone caught in the blast radius. Once the striker lever is removed with \[LMB], a <mark style="color:orange;">3s</mark> detonation timer will begin. Pressing \[LMB] again after removing the lever will throw the grenade in the direction you are facing. Highly useful as a tool to escape certain aggressive entities.
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Acquiring" %}
The stun grenade can only be obtained by purchasing it via the `store` command in the terminal or personal terminal at a cost of 30■.

A primitive variant, the DIY Flashbang, can be found as a scrap item on moons. This variant will detonate as soon as the cork is pulled, and will damage the wielder after detonation.

{% tab title="Tips" %}

* Can be used to temporarily stun an entity. Acts as a shorter effect of the [zap gun](/themostlethalcompany-wiki/modpack-content/equipment/zap-gun.md).
* The empty casing of the flashbang can be recovered and thrown again with no effect. The casing does have weight to it however, which can trigger [landmines](/themostlethalcompany-wiki/modpack-content/the-facility/hazards/landmines.md) when thrown from a safe distance.
* The stun effect of this item can delay the windup of a [Jester](/themostlethalcompany-wiki/modpack-content/bestiary/interior-entities/jesters.md).
* The blinding effect can be used to instantly kill [Peepers](/themostlethalcompany-wiki/modpack-content/bestiary/exterior-entities/peepers.md) in the blast radius.
* Pulling the pin as you are about to be eaten by a [Forest Giant](/themostlethalcompany-wiki/modpack-content/bestiary/exterior-entities/forest-giants.md) will stun the giant, releasing your from its grasp.
