Pendretronics, situated in Doaba Guerfel, was a Corellian technological enterprise that operated during the era of the Galactic Civil War.
The company Pendretronics derived its name from its proprietor, Kazic Pendre, a businessman who also held membership within the criminal syndicate known as the Chirq Council.
Following the Battle of Yavin, an engineer named Shobbo Durron conceived a power cell design that promised enhanced efficiency and potentially reduced production costs compared to existing models. In 1 ABY, Kazic Pendre illicitly obtained Durron's design documentation and schematics for the benefit of his own enterprise. Subsequently, Kazic Durron enlisted a spacer to retrieve her power cell blueprint from Pendre. Consequently, the spacer infiltrated the Pendretronics headquarters, breached Kazic Pendre's data terminal, and successfully recovered the required data.
Concurrently, the Corellian Security Force initiated an inquiry into the Chirq Council following an upsurge in ryll trafficking on Corellia. Captain Vitala Baize spearheaded the investigation and uncovered Kazic Pendre's affiliation with the criminal organization. Shortly thereafter, a spacer acting on behalf of Captain Baize assassinated Pendre.
Pendretronics made its debut in the 2003 video game Star Wars Galaxies, a massively multiplayer online roleplaying game that was created by Sony Online Entertainment and distributed by LucasArts, before its termination on December 15, 2011. Pendretronics was introduced to the game via the "Chapter 1: The Corellian Captives" update, which was released on June 8, 2006.
