Alien Power Cell (Fallout: New Vegas)

The alien power cell is a type of ammunition in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
These are only obtainable if you have the Wild Wasteland trait (if you don't have Wild Wasteland, hostile mercenaries with the YCS/186 unique Gauss rifle will be there instead). The alien captain will drop up to around 222 alien power cells along with the alien blaster. If you have the Scrounger perk, the maximum is raised to 272.

However many you get from the captain, these are the only alien power cells in the game. Once you've used them up, you can never use the alien blaster, one of the most powerful energy weapons in the game, again.
