Cyberpunk 2020 - Three Techie built devices



Techies are always in the need for some extra bucks to spend to buy more gear and add to their stockpile of junk to scavenge from. So there are three items that Techies have been known to make for the right price.



Car Door Opener – 100eb


This is a small hand held device that can be built into most cellphones. It is a mix of both an app and some hardware. When you get near a vehicles door that has an electronic look, you activate the app which then spirals through a series of signal codes broadcast from the alterations made to the phone. It takes a D10 of seconds and then the door unlocks. Takes about an hour to build plus a day to write the app if you choose to do that yourself.
Tech + Electronics + D10 vs 15 to do the hardware modifications with about 10eb of extra bits.

Int + Programming + D10 vs 20 to write up a quick app or you can just download one off the net.



The OFF Switch – 25eb


Cannibalizing and old universal remote for televisions this device will turn off every television within a twenty foot radius. Altering the remote with a better power supply and a boosted signal broadcast it spirals through signals in ten seconds shutting off the televisions brand by brand. Takes about an hour to build.

Tech + Electronics + D10 vs 15 to do the hardware modifications with about 10eb of extra bits.



Spike Strips – 350eb


While police and military issue spike strips are strictly illegal for civilians and very expensive to purchase on the black market any Techie can whip a set of their own up. Usually packed into a briefcase or similar sized container these are pulled out and deployed in seconds. Spreading out to around ten feet in length with a nice array of steel spikes. One who isn't afraid to blow their hands off can build a set with small explosive charges that will blow the tires out for sure. Takes about a day to build, another day to install the explosive charges if you wish.

Tech + Basic Tech + D10 vs 15 to build with around 25 eb of scrap metal.

Tech + Demolitions +D10 vs 15 to add explosive charges to each spike using about a 2kg of C-6 Plastic Explosive and a few old batteries and some wire.
