Enter a rock's scan and your laser loadout to see whether you can crack it, how much power you need, and where your charge window sits.

Higher instability tightens the safe hold window; window modules widen it. Your gear shifts the window by -40% against an adjusted instability of 48. This is a relative guide, not the exact in-game green zone.
Laser heads, modules and gadgets come from live UEX item stats (the same catalogue as the Loadout Planner); the fracture formula is CIG's published mining model. Resistance, instability and window modifiers come from your gear; module power buffs aren't factored in yet, so a real Rieger-style setup can crack a little more than shown. Values are estimates for planning, the charge minigame adds variance in the moment. Re-validate after a big Star Citizen patch.
