The Violet Boomer breaks down into Gun Powder, Low Grade Fuel and Metal Fragments.
A recycler takes 2 per cycle, so a full stack of 20 goes through in 10 cycles.
Figures are for one item in perfect condition. Each recycler’s name opens its full table at this item. “22 + 50%” means 22 every time and a 50% chance of one more.
In Rust, Violet Boomer is a fun and decoration in the Fun category (item ID #-280223496, console shortname firework.boomer.violet). In active play, it follows standard server rules for fun and decoration gear across procedural maps. Inventory storage stacks up to 20 units per slot, and uncollected ground drops despawn after 5 minutes.

Crafting Violet Boomer in Rust takes 10 seconds by hand without a workbench, with all ballistics, crafting, and durability values read from the Rust game files. Shredding a spare copy at a green recycler recovers base materials at fifty percent yield (vs forty percent at safe-zone yellow units). Equipped and stored units carry no durability wear bar.
Most fun and decoration items stack to 1; the Violet Boomer stacks to 20.
When comparing Violet Boomer against related fun in Rust, craft copies once the blueprint is unlocked (10 seconds per craft) and recycle surplus spares at an unpowered radtown green recycler (fifty percent base efficiency) rather than a safe-zone yellow recycler (forty percent efficiency) to maximize recovered materials.

The Violet Boomer takes 10 seconds to craft, down to 2.5 seconds at Workbench Level 2 or 3 in Rust. It belongs to the Fun category under numeric ID -280223496 across 63 fun and despawns after 5 minutes when dropped on a default server.
Dropped on the ground in Rust, the Violet Boomer despawns after 5 minutes by default. Picking it back up into a player inventory or storing it inside a base container immediately resets that ground despawn timer, which the server scales by item rarity tier.
The Violet Boomer stacks to 20 per slot in Rust. Players can split a pile in half with middle-click drag or move a custom quantity with Shift-click drag across inventory slots, storage boxes, and the Tool Cupboard, while dropped copies despawn after 5 minutes under the Fun category (item ID -280223496).
The Violet Boomer has 32-bit signed item ID -280223496 and shortname firework.boomer.violet in Rust. Server plugins, custom loot tables, Vending Machine listings, and automated Industrial Conveyor filter strings reference these two identifiers under the Fun category (stack limit 20 units per slot).
Server administrators in Rust spawn the Violet Boomer in the F1 developer console with inventory.give firework.boomer.violet 20 or inventory.giveid -280223496 20 for 20 units. Both console spawn commands require administrator or moderator privileges on the server, while regular players can bind a quick-craft shortcut key instead.
