| Grav Belt | |
|---|---|
| Type | Personal mobility |
| Tech Level | TL–12 |
| Cost | Cr100,000 |
| Size | 25 liters |
| Weight | 10kg |
| Also see | Gravity Control Technology |
A standard-issue TL–12 grav belt looks like a parachute harness with a “stiffener” that runs down the back and has a series of artificial gravity modules around the waist.
The grav belt weighs about 10 kg, but once it is turned on, a neutral control setting eliminates this weight. This configuration provides 300 kg of thrust for four hours between charges. The grav belt has a maximum speed in an atmosphere of 300 kph, a cruising speed of 225 kph, and a nap-of-earth speed of 40 kph.
