Brendan,

Correct me if I am mistaken, but Human Beam batteries are a development
or
offshoot of particle accelerators? Regardless of what you call them -
Phaser, lasers, particle project cannons, fusion cannons - they are all
energy weapons designed to eat armour, hull and anything eles that gets
in
their way. If Kra'Vak armour acts like energy shields, when hit by Human
beams, whos to say, that they don't also act like nuclear dampers, or
have
other special features..
