Fusion cell (Fallout 76)

	For an overview of microfusion cell ammunition types, see Microfusion cell.

Fusion cells are a type of ammunition in Fallout 76.

Background[]

Microfusion cells are small energy production units roughly the size of the palm. Each cell is a self-contained fusion plant, complete with its own fusion reactor.^[1][2] They were invented in 2066 by U.S. scientists as a potential solution to the energy crisis amid the Resource Wars.^[3] The No. 1040 MF model is able to provide 1040.8 DC volts and has both positive and negative terminals.^[4]

As fusion often uses combustible hydrogen isotopes and requires an enclosed space with sufficient pressure and temperature, microfusion cells may explode if ignited.^[5] This explosive potential has been used by explosive experts to create IEDs that explode similarly to a plasma grenade.^[6]

Characteristics[]

Fusion cells are an energy ammo type, specifically used by laser weaponry such as laser guns and their modded variants.
