The desk fan, office desk fan and restored desk fan are junk items in Fallout 4.
Characteristics[]
Desk fans were commonly used to cool down during warm temperatures before the War and can be found in homes and offices across the Commonwealth.
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 it can be found in places such as non-compromised Vaults.
Crafting[]
Desk fans can be broken down into components to use in crafting.
