TheE-liter 4K is amain weapon inSplatoon 2 andSplatoon 3, a successor toSplatoon'sE-liter 3K. It is acharger-type weapon that sacrifices mobility,ink consumption and charge time for extreme range that is only outclassed by itsscoped variant.

Like most chargers, this weapon can store a fully charged shot inswim form for a short amount of time, and a fully charged shot will pierce through opponents.

Appearance

In general, the E-liter 4K is based on a plastic gas pump handle with a metallic ink tank on the back and an elongated metallic spout with a plastic attachment and a black sight which acts as the barrel.

InSplatoon 2, the plastic parts are yellow and the ink tank changes color to match the user's ink.

InSplatoon 3, the plastic parts are blue, the handle also has a seven-segment LCD display, and the tube connecting the handle to the ink tank and a spring on the barrel change color to match the user's ink.

    		Sheldon's Introduction

    With its pressurized polymer construction, theE-liter 4K has a remarkably long range, even for acharger! This model offers a more compact design than the original, which has cut into its range slightly, but it still has plenty of reach! Use the accompanyingInk Mines to cover your tracks, and then bring theInk Stormspecial to expose anyone who dares hide from you!

    		Sheldon's Introduction

    With its pressurized polymer construction, theE-liter 4K has a remarkably long range, even for acharger! To get the most out of it, you can setInk Mines for opponents who get too close, then use theWave Breakerspecial to reveal those who are slinking around in theink. Still, this set is all about long-range accuracy, and in the right hands, it will definitely hit the target. I hope it goes to a good home!

    “Finally, we have theE-liter 4k.[sic] This is the granddaddy of the chargers - aweapon with massive range that takes a long time to charge and consumes tremendous amounts of ink. It's not for everyone, but in the right hands, it can be devastating.”
