While the Fallout 4 Pip-boy Edition made a great collectible and was a fun way to interact with the game, it had several limitations. Unless you had the right sized phone, it didn’t fill the screen. The buttons were prone to breaking, only two lights lit up, and once the phone was inside, there was no way to push the power or home buttons. In this episode, we paint and modify the model to light up fully and have working buttons. We also add rechargeable batteries and modify the stand to charge the Pip-boy. Not shown in the video, I added a needle from a watch to the Geiger counter. #Pipboy3000, #Fallout, #workingpipboy ►The items featured are listed below with links to find them. ★Fallout 4 Pip-boy Edition Pip-boy 3000: This model is no longer made but can be found online. https://ebay.to/2ZTmAzQ ★ The Pip-boy app is still available to find on the Apple store and for Android online as Fallout_Pip_Boycom.bethsoft.falloutcompanionappv1.2.apk ★ Samsung Galaxy J3: This phone was a perfect fit. I purchased four of them for $20 each from Walmart as they were US cellular and not a local carrier. Stores sell phones for cheap like this all the time, as long as you don’t mind the carrier. https://bit.ly/3uERfPh ★ Fallout.FM Online Radio https://play.google.com/store/apps/de... ★ GalaxyNewsRadio https://play.google.com/store/apps/de... ★ A-Bomb Radio https://play.google.com/store/apps/de... ★Kastar 9 volt rechargeable battery https://ebay.to/37VvwJh ★ 9 volt LED soft white lights and switch https://bit.ly/37Vvscv ►Music from Youtube Audio Library https://www.youtube.com/audiolibrary/ Clear Eyes by Silent Partner Greaser by TrackTribe Turn Up, Let's Go by Jeremy Blake Aimless Amos by Rondo Brothers Morning Stroll by Josh Kirsch/Media Right Productions Pedal to the Metal by Chris Haugen Gaiety in the Golden Age by Aaron Kenny The Fallout by Everet Almond I Feel Like Partying Right Now by Nat Keefe & BeatMower Retro by Wayne Jones ► Music from Storyblocks Music Library https://www.storyblocks.com/ Awkward Situation by Sean Fischer Snap Swing by Diego Martinez Comedy Background Detective Cartoon by Volodymyr Piddubnyk Is Leroy On It by Lance Conrad Fifties Rock and Roll Johnny Be Bad by Bobby Cole ►Disclosures Your Geek Fix was in no way affiliated with Bethesda or Samsung.
