When activated, a Portal Spawner will spawn a [[Portals|portal]] inside of it. Each spawner is set to spawn a particular color portal. Spawners are sometimes activated as soon as you enter the [[Test Chambers|test chamber]]. Other times, they are activated by [[Pedestal Button|Pedestal Buttons]] or set on a timer. In the very beginning of each game, when the player has no [[Handheld Portal Device]], both blue and orange Portal Spawners can be found in the test chambers. Once the player has the Single Portal Device and can fire blue portals on their own, only orange Portal Spawners appear. When they have the Dual Portal Device, Portal Spawners (now irrelevant), disappear altogether.
