Background: The Etti Lighter, also known as the Etti Light Transport or Authority lighter, was a mid-sized freighter produced and used by the Corporate Sector Authority.

Though the 125-meter vessel was equipped with a hyperdrive, it carried only three days of provisions in its standard configuration. It was, therefore, limited to short-range (often intra-system) missions. It could carry up to 400 tons of cargo and was well-defended with ten quad laser cannons.

In remote, low-priority systems of the Corporate Sector, the CSA Security Division used modified Etti Lighters, equipped with upgraded power generators and turbolasers, as anti-smuggling patrol craft. Han Solo and Chewbacca encountered one of these modified Etti Lighters at Duroon.

The Skandrei Bandits, pirates who operated within the Kathol Outback during the early years of the New Republic, drove modified versions of these vessels.
