This mod requires New Vegas Script Extender!

Are you a classic Fallout fan? Or do you just want a change of scenery when you press your personal information processor to your face? No matter the reason, you owe it to yourself to try the Pip-Boy 2500 today!

The Pip-Boy 2500 is the successor of the rugged Pip-Boy 2000 and the predecessor to the more recent Pip-Boy 3000. This mod will replace your arm-mounted Pip-Boy 3000 with the handheld Pip-Boy 2500. The 3000's accompanying glove will also be removed.

The Pip-Boy 2500 was designed with a larger and wider screen than the 2000 model. The 2500, unlike the 3000, operates using a series of visible vacuum tubes and boasts a more traditional design.
