Scrap Electronics

Scrap electronics is a miscellaneous item in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
Among other uses, it can be used in the repair of ED-E to start the quest ED-E My Love, if the player lacks sufficient Repair or Science skill to use the other options. It can also be used to create time bombs, weapon repair kits, and gas bombs at workbenches.

Locations
There are many (around 10, more or less) to be found in Novac, inside the garage at the gas station, and on the shelves right outside the gas station. To take them you must sneak, because they are considered stealing, and there's usually a traveling merchant standing there. You might have to use a Stealth Boy. A better alternative would be to drag each piece to a safe hidden area and proceed to take them, thus avoiding the use of a valuable Stealth Boy.
 * 3 to 5 can be found (along with an equal number of wrenches and duct tape) on shelves and in toolboxes in the HELIOS One solar collection tower, and a couple can be found in toolboxes around the solar reflector field. See That Lucky Old Sun for details on gaining entry and hostile robots/turrets.
 * Two can be found in the Lone Wolf Radio, southwest of Goodsprings.
 * At least 5 are in the Nellis Hangars.
 * A couple can be found in the generator room during the quest Ant Misbehavin'.
 * 1 can be bought from the Boomer Munitions Manager.
 * 2 are in an open-air shed at Crimson Caravan Company.
 * 2 can be found in Good Springs general store. 1 in the counter and 1 in a toolbox on the back wall.
 * One each can be found in the two toolboxes inside the Mister Gutsy House in Nipton.
 * 1-4 in the Train Tunnel near the Brotherhood of Steel Safehouse (NOTE: In order to get in you need a 100 Lockpick skill)
 * Once fully upgraded, Muggy can give the player 5 of them per day.
