So I got this game yesterday and am having a lot of fun so far, but I am at the part where Preston and his group are at Sanctuary and the only thing I really need to work on now is defensebut I used what little circuitry I had to fix and upgrade power armor pieces.

The only places I have really been so far is the city you meet Preston in, a nearby far, and a factory near that with ghouls that I dont remember what it's called.

I think phones have circutry and are pretty common anywhere.

Thanks for the tip. I havent been picking those up. I know the easiest answer is simply "play the game and explore" but I wont be home for a few hours and was kinda wondering about the highest concentrations.

Phones, Hot Plates, Turrets that have been blown up. You can tag circuits so any item that has circuits in it will have a magnifying glass on it.

If you tag the items you are missing, you soon get a taste for useful junk:

My favourites include:

• Telephones
• Typewriters
• Fans
• Light bulbs
• Oil cans,,,

All junk is useful. Everything else is less useful.

Anything with oil is a score, aluminum containers have alum and oil
