It can cost your last charge.
Inverter

Best momentTake the item that resolves the current risk, such as a Glass, Saw, or Beer.
The stolen item must be used right away.
Which items are in each mode?
Story Stage 1 has no items. Stages 2 and 3 deal Magnifying Glass, Beer, Cigarette Pack, Handcuffs and Hand Saw. Double or Nothing adds Adrenaline, Burner Phone, Expired Medicine and Inverter. Multiplayer replaces Handcuffs with Jammer and adds Remote for tables of three or four.
Why item order matters
A Magnifying Glass reveal can make a Saw or Inverter much safer. Beer discards the current shell, so using it after changing that shell with an Inverter usually wastes the change.
