A Mr. Handy Box, a washing machine, a furnace, and I'd assume a clothes dryer. No charging station there.

That fuel isn't for running the robot itself. It's for the Mr. Handy's blowtorch and the Mr. Gutsy's flamer.

I was just thinking this as I was reading the new posts.

Same person who kept all the Mr Gutsies going out in the middle of nowhere guarding military trucks and whatnot in Fallout 3.

Realism would svck because if we were to go by true realism you would walk out and find nothing, and probably die of exposure in under a month. YEAHH!

You can pick apart ANY game because they are not meant to be scientifically accurate they are meant to be FUN.

Codsworth is refueling Codsworth.

It's an autonomous robot.

It's not like he's a dog who can't make heads or tails from a can opener. I'm sure they made him perfectly capable of recharging and refueling himself for the sake of convenience. Because who wants to lug around a 200 pound hunk of metal when it's out of juice?

Why is everyone ignoring the points about the fuel being for the blowtorch? Like seriously. THAT is why they have fuel on them, otherwise they run on nuclear power.

Perhaps because that doesn't make any actual physical sense.

Nuclear power doesn't work like that. It doesn't make flames. It produces electricity by spinning turbines with rapidly created steam.

You say nuclear power but I don't think you know how it actually works.

The only place the flames could come from is some sort of burnable fuel.

Now see that I would ascribe to SCIENCE! but not the fact that canonically they run on fusion power. Artistic license I figure.

That's an even worse case then. Fission can go a very long time without refueling being necessary.

Fusion uses hydrogen isotopes to merge and create energy, going up from hydrogen to helium all the way up to iron and you're pretty much done at a certain point in fusing.

You need to keep supplying the light hydrogen isotopes to the reaction so it will keep going. One of the isotopes is created by the reaction itself if you encase it in lithium. But the second isotope needed is only found in seawater.

So it still begs the question, how is he being refueled?

For that matter he's left with a bunch of Iron inside him that needs to be dumped every once in a while I'd assume.

But I'd assume that being an autonomous robot he can refuel himself.

Robotic services.. A company made for robots, by robots.

The flame units run off fuel
