Best way to level Electricity skill?

[Johnny Boy]

You need level 3 to move things like ovens and washing machines, and so far as I know you can level it through crafting and dismantling electrical items. But a lot of the electrical crafting recipes are locked at level 3 anyways, so I end up just dismantling hundreds of radios, tv's, and the likes. There's gotta be an easier/faster way to level it, right? Even with the skill books it takes ages and it's really tedious.

imo the skill requirement for moving electrical furniture should only be one anyways, it's not that hard to move a washing machine. Or just give it a chance to break if the skill's too low, that system already works fine for regular furniture and the carpentry skill.

Just asked this question lol

Also i am pretty sure that you can craft some makeshift radios at lvl 1

Dismantle every TV and Radio, and of course read the books, you can craft items to gain more xp. its very easy to level 1-3 in a short time.

Thats correct.

I can get 1-2 easily reading the first book and dismantling every radio, watch, 2 way, electronic etc. I also think taking and replacing lightbulbs gives a small amount but that 3rd skill level takes forever for me. Good news is I think you can probably stop grinding it after 3, not really much else to do with electronics.

After 3 it only gives you bonuses to more efficently use a generator, i think. It's worth to continue disasembling everything you find, plus that gets you electronic scrap for the gennies. But it's not really a requirement.

You need level 3 to operate a generator without having read the relevant skill magazine, if you do read the magazine it does not make a difference if you are level 0 or level 3.

You need level 1 to help hotwire any car.

Just make sure to read a book and you should get some levels in short order.
