Won’t using this weaken your muscles?

Even that could be hefty, if you’d done the foolish thing and walk the Appalachian trail.

That looks very “Starship Troopers!” (The book, not the movie.)
Are these used in the military? Because it sounds like it would come in handy for folks that ruck stuff over a distance.

Maybe I’ll do Everest next year.

I don't think the current Hypershell is sufficiently waterproof for snow skiing but the market potential there is massive.
And the potential for cyclists is huge. All of a sudden, 100-mile rides are easy.

It weighs about 5 pounds. I imagine you could pack a battery or two.
I think the bigger issue is “long haul” hiking. I don’t think there are chargers on the Appalachian Trail.

You can do Everest on Saturday and K2 on Sunday.

If I could buy a pair of battery-powered AI legs, I could just send them out for my morning walk and save even more effort.

That’s a huge extra weight on a long multi day trek.
It’s be interesting to see someone do the entire Appalachian Trail with these. Wonder how he’ll fare vs ultralight hikers. The current record is 22 days for 2200 miles.
This is a fully supported trek with a ground team providing food, rest and gear.
