'''Defective Turrets''', also called "Crap Turrets" by [[Wheatley]], are damaged, ammo-less, unfinished, or faultily assembled [[Sentry Turret|Sentry Turrets]]. Unlike normal Sentry Turrets, Defective Turrets have a more humorous and sarcastic dialogue, and speak in a masculine, less robotic voice.

They are harmless to [[Chell]], many times making comments such as "If anyone asks, I killed you". Their voice lines seem to imply they are blind, but they are still aware of Chell's presence. They are first encountered in Chapter 5: The Escape.

[[Wheatley]] later repeats this error when he plans a perfectly good ambush for [[Chell]], but uses defective turrets instead of working ones, despite knowing of [[Chell|Chell's]] sabotage. Once again they explode harmlessly.

They speak in a masculine voice rather than the feminine ones like the rest of the [[Turret|turrets]]. Their voices also seem to lack the robotic edge of the normal [[Turret|turrets]].
They sometimes will ask other [[Turret|turrets]] for bullets, try to speak in a higher voice to imitate non-defective ones, and humorously shout "Blam! Blam! Blam! I'm not defective!" in a vain attempt to not get tossed out.
Certain defective turrets are in boxes. They do not shoot and blow up near instantly.

These are not to be confused with the [[Oracle Turret]], which is fully assembled but says different lines in a different voice.
If the player grabs one before moving the template turret and switches them instantaneously, the template turret exploding will cause the defective turret to become slightly misaligned. Despite this, the system still functions correctly.
The turrets appearing in Course 5 of Cooperative Testing Initiative look like defective turrets but work and speak properly. This, possibly, means that defective turrets are built by broken 20th century machines, as Course 5 is set in the old Enrichment Center.
Hacking a functioning turret into the game and placing it in the Master Turret Booth will cause it to change its model to a defective turret.
