The Gadget Meter, also known as the Focus Meter or Gadget Gauge, is a recurring gameplay feature that has been in use since Sly 2: Band of Thieves. This yellow meter, located on the bottom part of the Thief Meter, represents how much Focus the current character has. Focus is depleted when using most gadgets. The Gadget Meter does not show up on the screen until a character or costume is being used that has an ability that costs focus, except in Sly 3: Honor Among Thieves, where all characters start with a Gadget Meter.
