Portable battery charger

The Portable battery charger is a device that can recharge exosuit batteries from the energy stored inside Zone artifacts.
== Usage ==
Double-click on the PBC. In its interface, select the battery you want to recharge, and an eligible artifact as a power source. It will start draining the artifact power into the battery, displaying the time to full charge.
You can use many artifacts at once, accelerating the process.
With proper timing, artifacts could be pulled out of the charger when their capacity is almost depleted. You can use those artifacts for other purposes without any issues or degradation.
The PBC is also the only method of recharging valuable High capacity batteries, used mainly for powering Cloaking exoskeletons.
