'''Electric Shooters''' are devices that appear in the [[Space Storm Galaxy]] of the game ''[[Super Mario Galaxy 2]]''. They are the yellow versions of the group of Shooters, more resembling the nozzle of [[F.L.U.D.D.]]. They appear in the mission "[[Space Storm Galaxy#Follow Me.2C Bob-omb|Follow Me, Bob-omb]]", in the [[Space Storm Galaxy#Electric Field Area|Electric Field]] where the player is using [[Pull Star]]s. They shoot orbs of electricity at [[Mario]] or [[Luigi]] and if they are hit they will fall and lose a life. Prior to shooting they tend to charge up and glow thus making it easy to predict their firing pattern. To avoid them, Mario or Luigi must quickly move to another Pull Star before they die.

Zap Nozzles[1] are devices in Super Mario Galaxy 2. They are the yellow versions of the Water Shooter and Fire Shooter, with, like the others, nozzles similar to F.L.U.D.D.'s nozzle. They appear in the Space Storm Galaxy in the mission Follow Me, Bob-omb in the Electric Field Area where the player uses the Pull Stars. They shoot homing orbs of electricity at Mario or Luigi. If one hits him, it causes him to fall and lose a wedge of health, and possibly fall into the black hole (the player can still quickly grab a Pull Star to stop Mario or Luigi from falling). The electric orbs are the same ones that the Undergrunt Gunner in the Toy Time Galaxy and the Boomsday Machine in Bowser Jr.'s Boom Bunker shoot out. Prior to shooting, Zap Nozzles tend to charge up and glow, thus making it easy to predict their firing pattern.
