The shoes are around 4lbs each. I wonder how much of that is the battery and if you couldn't get them to more negligible weight with a connected/worn battery.

- carb 4y agoCompared to the weight of the user, does the weight of the shoes matter? And would a worn battery help longevity vs built-in given that it still contributes to the total weight of the user+shoe?
- gibolt 4y ago4 lbs of weight on each foot is a lot of weight. Probably not too bad when in a gait, but walking up stairs or long use would put high stress on your joints. Carrying 100 lbs on your back is easier than in your hands which is easier than on your foot.
