−	In the years between the [[Second Exodus]] and the beginning of [[Operation KLONDIKE]] the nascent [[Clan]]s began development of what would become the ER Small Laser. One of the first of the advanced weapon types to be developed, experimental prototype versions of this new weapon were used during Operation KLONDIKE in small quantities. The Clan Prototype ER Small Laser (ER-SL-CP) available during this period has identical stats to the Inner Sphere ER Small Laser, other than that it generates 2 heat per shot.<ref name="H:OKp156">''Historical: Operation KLONDIKE'', p. 156: "Prototype Clan Systems"</ref>	+	In the years between the [[Second Exodus]] and the beginning of [[Operation KLONDIKE]] the nascent [[Clan]]s began development of what would become the ER Small Laser.

As the name suggests, the Extended-Range variant of the [[Small Laser]] increases the power of the beam to project it to much farther ranges. The power necessary to facilitate the production of such generates an increased quantity of waste heat.<ref name="TMp226"/> Extended range small lasers can be mounted on [[infantry]], [[battle armor|powered armor]], or [[Elemental|Elementals]]. <!-- Removed reference to "unlike larger models" because some battle armor models mount ER Medium Lasers; removed reference to the Clans not having a standard small laser as that's not relevant to an article on the ER Small Laser. --> == Variants == In the years between the [[Second Exodus]] and the beginning of [[Operation KLONDIKE]] the nascent [[Clan]]s began development of what would become the ER Small Laser. One of the first of the advanced weapon types to be developed, experimental prototype versions of this new weapon were used during Operation KLONDIKE in small quantities.
