Terullian Diode Bypass Transformer

A compact Sontaran technology component salvaged from the compromised spaceship by Harry. Its internal terullian diodes show signs of sabotage through frayed wiring and erratic energy fluctuations. The Doctor uses it to trigger the ship's self-destruct sequence, overriding Styre's attempts to flee. The component's activation strains under the overload, causing both it and Styre's body to collapse in short, violent succession.
