Pip-Boy (Vault-Tec Workshop)

The Vault 88 Pip-Boy is a miscellaneous item in the Fallout 4 add-on Vault-Tec Workshop.

Characteristics
Identical in appearance to a Pip-Boy 3000 Mark IV, the one used by the Sole Survivor.

It is listed as a miscellaneous item, as it cannot be equipped by the Sole Survivor (who would already wear a Pip-Boy of their own), but it can be equipped by some NPCs, such as Clem. Most settlers and even humanoid companions (apart from Hancock and Nick Valentine) Piper, MacCready, Cait and Deacon will also equip it if given to them.

Instead of having to tell a settler to equip, it will automatically be equipped as soon as it's on their inventory. And when that happens, it disappears from their inventory, making it impossible to get it back.

Location
Usually 10 can be found on a Vault 88 themed steamer trunk by the main entrance, as well as in small brown boxes, with one each, in the same area. Those containers get refilled from time to time.

Bugs

 * When the Pip-Boy is placed in the settler's inventory, it will not automatically equip, remaining as an item in their inventory indefinitely.
 * To work around this, get all (new) Pip-Boys from the Pip-Boy crates and Vault steamer trunk in the entrance area. Transfer all Pip-Boys to the settler. Usually three Pip-Boys will be taken from the stack, the settler will equip one, and you can take the remaining ones back to give them to other settlers.
