The desk fan, office desk fan and restored desk fan are junk items in Fallout 76.
Characteristics[]
Desk fans were commonly used to cool down during warm temperatures before the War and can be found in homes and offices across Appalachia.
The pre-War, restored variant of the desk fan is in pristine condition. The name suggests it has been repaired from a broken state, however its appearance in places untouched by the fallout suggests, that it was never damaged.
Crafting[]
The different desk fans can be broken down into their individual components for use in crafting:
