The machine that performed this re-amplification was called the energizer and was located in Engineering in a special room; also called the energizing circuits. Lazarus caused the energizer to short out when he stole two crystals; his ship took ten minutes to re-energize two of the Enterprise's drained 6 x 9 inch dilithium crystal.
