U.S. Army Soldiers seeking Situational Awareness (SA) through electronic mental gadgets are at risk of being blinded by battery power failure. This is just one reason why its not good enough to apply just electronic Future Combat System (FCS) SA "icing" to bad "cake" like foot-slogging light infantry that lacks a FCS troop-carrying tank platform with fuel-powered and potentially solar power sources to regenerate batteries for dismounted actions. They need a "FCS Junior"--a High Technology M113 Gavin light tank to carry and charge SA devices--while offering cross-country armored mobility and battle-winning firepower--and not be a costly hindrance as a road-bound wheeled Humvee/Stryker/JLTV truck is:

Some small devices requiring low amounts of electricity can be Soldier hand-crank and solar powered and this video shows one commercial, off-the-shelf (COTS) solution for light and cell phones that can be worn on the hip. Obviously a purpose-built military pocket charger would be more capable at greater cost and less availability.
