Photon grenade
From Warhammer 40k - Lexicanum
Photon grenades are designed to emit an extremely bright pulse of multi-spectrum light which will damage any viewing equipment or optical devices. This will blind them and make them effectively put them into a protracted state of shock, during which time they cannot defend themselves.[1]
Tau photon grenades are designed to emit a sonic blast and a pulse of multi-spectrum light. They can be thrown by hand or fired from a Pulse Carbine.[2]
The Imperium makes use of a photon grenade known as a photon flash or simply a flash grenade.[3]
