'''Power cores''', also referred to as '''fusion coils''',<ref>[[:File:H4-Concept-Forerunner-FusionCoil.jpg|'''Halo 4''', ''Fusion coil concept art'']]</ref> are [[Forerunner]] devices presumably used to store energy to power up Forerunner machines. They are recognized by their low pulsating humming, and can be found mounted on walls on some Forerunner installations. An explosion of a power core can be lethal at close range. There are similar, although larger devices called [[energy core]]s.<ref name="h2">'''Halo 2'''</ref> | '''Power cores''', also referred to as '''fusion coils''',<ref>[[:File:H4-Concept-Forerunner-FusionCoil.jpg|'''Halo 4''', ''Fusion coil concept art'']]</ref> are [[Forerunner]] devices presumably used to store energy to power up Forerunner machines.
