Zap Glove

The zap glove is a weapon in Fallout: New Vegas.

Characteristics
Visibly it appears as a blue and yellow colored metal gauntlet with an electrified plate wrapped around the fingers, which emits a burst of electricity when striking an object. A critical hit emits a more powerful blast. Its electrical nature makes this weapon especially effective against robots and (to a lesser degree) enemies clad in most forms of power armor.

Durability
The zap glove can successfully strike about 495 times from full condition before breaking.

Variants

 * Paladin Toaster

Locations

 * Crimson Caravan Company - it can be bought from Blake.
 * Hidden Valley - can be found on Brotherhood of Steel initiates, who wield it. Elder McNamara may also be seen wearing one. In addition, multiple scribes carry them.
 * Hoover Dam - it can be bought from Quartermaster Bardon.
 * Mick & Ralph's, Freeside - it can be bought from Mick.
 * Miguel's Pawn Shop - can sometimes be bought from Miguel

Behind the scenes
Sometime before release, zap gloves, as well as many other unarmed weapons, were supposed to use energy cells as ammunition, but it wasn't supported by the game engine and there was not enough time for implementation.

Bugs

 * The zap glove uses the same icon as the Fallout 3 version of the power fist, despite the game files containing a specific icon for this weapon.
 * Sometimes repairing the zap glove with another one will cause them both to disappear.
 * The zap glove, along with the Paladin Toaster, will not do reduced EMP damage against Big MT robots. Additionally, the weapons will not do any EMP damage against Cyberdogs found in the Big MT.
