The detonator is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.
Contents
Characteristics
The detonator is specifically used to detonate C-4 after it is planted. During Eureka!, it may also be used to detonate a generator at the Hoover Dam checkpoint after hacking a Very Hard terminal. The tool itself has no other use, and is unable to harm enemies by itself.
This weapon qualifies as an improved holdout weapon.
Variants
- Loyal's detonator, given by Loyal to activate a buoyancy device during the quest Volare!.
Mining detonator, used to collapse the cave during the quest River Monsters.- Broken detonator, can be found in the Little Yangtze watchtower. It is considered a miscellaneous item.
