Tessera Industries Compact Evidence Destroyer CED-2

A portable device that destroys physical evidence and electronic data with a combination of thermite incineration and electromagnetic pulse. The CED-2 has two compartments — a thermite chamber that incinerates physical items at 2,500°C, and an EMP generator that permanently destroys electronic data on any device placed within its field. The device is single-use and reduces its contents to unrecoverable ash and magnetically wiped circuits in under 5 seconds. Tessera markets it as a 'classified material destruction system' for authorized disposal of sensitive materials.

story hooks

A CED-2 was activated at a crime scene, destroying all physical and electronic evidence in one 5-second burst — investigators arrived to find a pile of ash and the melted remains of the CED-2 itself.
A CED-2 has been modified with a timer and concealed in a filing cabinet — it is set to destroy the cabinet's contents at a specific time, and finding it before activation requires knowing it exists.

physical description

visual profile	A compact, militaristic rectangular box with a hinged top access panel. The form factor suggests serious industrial purpose — all hard angles and thermal-resistant casing. Visually resembles a high-end portable safe crossed with lab equipment. No unnecessary styling; pure functional brutalism.
dimensions	35cm wide × 28cm deep × 22cm tall (briefcase-sized)
weight description	2 kg — handheld but requires two hands for sustained carrying; fits in a tactical bag with effort
primary material	Titanium-composite external shell with thermal-resistant ceramic lining visible through side vents
finish	Matte gunmetal with heat-stress discoloration patterns (browns, purples) across the upper thermite chamber section from previous use cycles. Deliberate wear aesthetic — this is a tool, not show
color scheme	Dark gunmetal gray primary; burnt copper and charcoal accents around ventilation grilles; neon-orange warning stripe along the hinge edge
interface elements	Two recessed pushbuttons (red and black) mounted flush on the top face; small neural-link contact pad (3mm circular, silver-toned) center-mounted for authorization handshake; dual exhaust ports with thermal louvers on rear; hinged front access panel with magnetic closure
distinctive features	Faint scorch marks and thermal bloom patterns across the upper half indicating active use Ventilation grilles that glow faintly orange/red when thermal chamber is active Recessed button wells to prevent accidental activation Neural-link contact pad with subtle status LED that cycles blue-to-amber during authorization Magnetic closure latch that clicks with satisfying mechanical precision
manufacturer markings	Tessera Industries logo (geometric T in chrome) stamped on top; 'VASQUEZ BIOCOMPATIBLE MATERIALS' etched below in small sans-serif; serial number and batch code on rear panel; regulatory disposal codes in micro-print; warning triangle with thermite and EMP symbols
condition typical	Micro-scratches and handling wear on edges; subtle carbon scoring on the thermal vents; neural-pad may show faint discoloration from repeated bioelectric contact. Despite rugged appearance, unit maintains pristine internal precision — user-facing surfaces show evidence of professional handling

Product photography: Tessera Industries CED-2 evidence destroyer positioned on brushed-steel workbench beside scattered burnt circuit boards and ash residue. Device lid partially open revealing the ceramic thermite chamber interior glowing faintly amber. Dramatic side-lighting casts deep shadows across the matte gunmetal casing, highlighting scorch marks and thermal stress patterns. Neon-orange warning stripe catches electric blue accent light. Neural-link contact pad glows soft cyan. Moody neo-noir lab atmosphere, shallow depth of field, cinematic shadows. Shot from three-quarter angle. Professional destruction equipment aesthetic. --ar 3:2 --v 6
