Miscellaneous Wheatley Notes
Fact: Wheatley can survive on 1.1 volts of power.
The Announcer says near the beginning of Portal 2: "Well done! The Enrichment Center reminds you that although circumstances may appear bleak, you are not alone. All Aperture Science personality constructs will remain functional in apocalyptic, low power environments of as few as 1.1 volts."
Fact: Wheatley can survive temperatures up to 4000° Kelvin (6740.33° Fahrenheit, 3726.85° Celsius).
In Portal, GLaDOS says: "Congratulations. The test is now over. All Aperture technologies remain safely operational up to 4000 degrees Kelvin. Rest assured that there is absolutely no chance of a dangerous equipment malfunction prior to your victory candescence. Thank you for participating in this Aperture Science computer-aided enrichment activity. Goodbye."
Fact: Any pain Wheatley feels is probably simulated.
In Portal 2, after Chell and Wheatley make the crap turrets the default setting, he laughs at some of the turrets being sent to their doom and says: "Our handiwork. Shouldn't laugh. They do feel pain. Of a sort. All simulated. But real enough for them I suppose." Many of Aperture's technology seems to be equipped with extra things such as pain simulators.
Fact: Wheatley somehow has a sense of smell.
Throughout Portal 2 he says that humans are smelly and asks Chell if she smells neurotoxin.
