==Notes==
* The clear, see-through texture produced by the Chinese stealth armor is slightly different than that of a Stealth Boy, and can be compared by hot-keying a Stealth Boy, and activating it while sneaking.
* The effect lasts for one in-game hour or two real-time minutes. If using an additional Stealth Boy when a previous one is still active, the duration of the stealth effect does not replenish - it stacks, so the effect will last two in-game hours.
* Before patch 1.5, it was possible to use the "set timescale to [multiplier]" console command on the PC to extend the Stealth Boy's duration to the desired time. Afterward, it lasts two real-time minutes regardless of the timescale.
* The use of the Stealth Boy while in combat with non-hostile non-player characters and then crouching can stop combat. The non-player characters usually revert to being friendly.
* The geomapper module has the same in-game appearance as the Stealth Boy.
* All three Stealth Boys found in the Museum of Technology are larger than the regular ones.
==Bugs==
* There is a glitch wherein activating a Stealth Boy causes the hair mesh of the player character not wearing any headgear to appear on the Pip-Boy, or on other random locations near the player character, while in 3rd-person view. This does not affect whether enemies will detect you.
* If the player activates a Stealth Boy and then travels to the Capital Wasteland on the Duchess Gambit, the effect will still last one in-game hour.
* Occasionally, if the player uses a Stealth Boy inside a building and then loads a save previous to using it and puts it in any container (even owned ones), then exits the building, it disappears.
