Thought I’d let you know about a new “GO Bag” backpack from VAD Wear®️. It’s on sale for Father’s Day. Holds all equipment securely. Quick battery access port. Plenty of room for additional gear and even a laptop! https://www.etsy.com/listing/1029233329/new-lvad-go-bag-backpack?ref=shop_home_active...

Any news of development of smaller batteries and if so when are they likely to be implemented - Thanks
