The Fusion Chamber is a piece of equipment featured in Lilo & Stitch 2: Stitch Has a Glitch.
Background[]
This rounded device is a large glass chamber backed by a series of equipment used for different charging purposes. In the movie, it was used for charging Stitch's molecular structure in order to prevent him from short-circuiting and dying.
Upon seeing Stitch having a breakdown during movie night, Jumba knew it was too good to be true. He revealed to Pleakley that during Stitch's creation, his molecules were not fully charged as Jumba was arrested by the Galactic Federation.
Jumba needed to create a fusion chamber for Stitch to prevent him from short-circuiting and dying. However, because he did not have the proper alien technology to do so, he had to build one using household appliances, such as a hair dryer, coffeemaker, blender, plunger, vacuum cleaner, and toaster.
When the fusion chamber was created, Jumba attempted to test it, but it exploded. He then revealed to Pleakley that he didn't create the first one as he ordered it from a catalog. Losing hope that Stitch will shut down, Jumba started to create another one after some encouragement from Pleakley.
When the new one was finished, Jumba was about to test until he saw Stitch's charts, which showed that his molecules were running on empty. With no time to test it, the two ran off to find him.
However, after an incident in which Stitch scratched Lilo's face during another episode, he took Jumba's ship to fly off to another planet, not knowing about the fusion chamber in the ship with him.
After crashing the ship due to another breakdown, Lilo took her hovercraft and flew over to where Jumba's ship had crashed. Upon finding the fusion chamber and a dying Stitch, Lilo dragged him to the machine and placed him in it. Turning it on, Lilo pleaded for Stitch to be all right; however, it was too late as Stitch said his goodbyes before dying.
After everyone mourned for the loss of Stitch, especially Lilo, who spent all her time focusing on winning the contest instead of Stitch's glitch, the monitor showed Stitch's molecules fully recharging as Stitch was revived again, showing that she got him in the fusion chamber just in time, given their love for each other.
