At next week’s AUSA Annual Exposition the US Army’s new Small Tactical Universal Battery (STUB) series will be taking center stage at the EXO Charge booth (number 860 in Hall ABC).
But also featured will be two other products the company has developed to ease the Soldier’s battery burden, and deliver greater operational effectiveness for portable electronics at the tactical edge. These are the Augmented Power Pack (APP) and the Rugged Auxiliary Charger (RAC), and we are pleased to give you a sneak peek before the show, or in case you’re unable to attend.
Augmented Power Pack (APP) – being developed especially to meet the needs of Special Operations Forces operating in austere environments, the APP is like a multi-tool for power – or a power bank on steroids. The APP packs a whopping 300Wh of energy capacity into a rugged, water-resistant, streamlined form factor. It also features an NVG-compatible display screen for viewing important system information, such as state-of-charge and time-to-depletion. For optimum interoperability and flexibility, the APP features 2x USB Type-C® and 1x NETT Warrior connectors. In fact, the APP is specifically designed to charge multiple devices simultaneously, the APP uses USB Power Delivery (PD) with Programmable Power Supply (PPS) to provide faster and more efficient charging than typical power banks. As it is purpose-built for military use, the APP also has a better thermal signature than commercial power banks, and is finished in a flat dark earth color tone for visual mitigation as well.
Rugged Auxiliary Charger (RAC) – Small, powerful, light weight, and rugged, the RAC is a pocket-sized power force multiplier. The RAC can draw power from any A/C source and utilizes the latest in USB Power Delivery (PD), Programmable Power Supply (PPS), and Gallium nitride (GaN) semiconductor technology to provide fast charging of multiple devices or batteries simultaneously. The RAC can charge standard military battery types such as the 2590 and CWB, is compatible with bulk chargers such as ABC and UBC. With 1x SAE connector, 2x USB Type-C ports, and 1x NETT Warrior connector, the RAC delivers maximum power flexibility and interoperability. The RAC also features a rugged housing that minimizes its thermal signature, and is also finished in a flat dark earth color tone for visual mitigation.
