Not gonna happen until someone invents better batteries.

Even then, how much mobility are you willing to sacrifice to carry more shit?

Well you're not really sacrificing that much mobility, since the power armor itself weighs 20 to 100 lbs, and it carries its own weight.

Yes but it will always be bulky. It might make sense for SWAT teams and such but not so much for infantry.

>>33867946
Body armor itself is bulky yet we use it plenty.

If you want homemade, you can also do this.
