Galvion unveils BATLCHRG, a wireless charging concept for soldiers' equipment at SOF Week 2024. This partnership with Quaze Technologies eliminates the need for cables and simplifies battlefield power management.

Galvion, a leader in soldier gear, is showcasing a new concept called BATLCHRG at SOF Week 2024. This wireless charging system is a big leap forward thanks to their partnership with Quaze Technologies, a Canadian tech company.

Imagine soldiers never having to worry about dead batteries again. BATLCHRG uses special mats and receivers to charge devices without wires. It's efficient, works even when dirty or wet, and can handle misalignment, so soldiers don't have to fiddle with perfect placement.

Galvion is showing off two ways BATLCHRG could be used in the field: built into vehicle seats and as wall mats in rest areas. This lets soldiers charge various battery-powered equipment while on the go or during downtime.

Benefits for Soldiers

BATLCHRG is more than just convenient. It frees soldiers from the burden of managing power cables and chargers. This translates to less weight to carry and more time focusing on the mission. Plus, with automatic charging whenever they're in a static position, batteries will always be topped up and ready.

The Tech Behind It

Quaze's technology, called Surface Power, is the magic behind BATLCHRG. It uses magnetic fields to transfer power wirelessly, similar to how a wireless phone charger works. This makes it safe, reliable, and can charge multiple devices at once, even if they need different amounts of power.

Galvion's Vision for the Future

Galvion sees BATLCHRG as a stepping stone towards a future where soldiers are completely untethered from power cords. They believe wireless charging, combined with software advancements, will allow for even more flexibility and adaptability on the battlefield.

This is just the beginning, and Galvion is excited to be at the forefront of this revolutionary technology.
