Hello
I'm new here but I believe I'll stick in for a long time
I've joined a project to build a space suit for research purposes. I've been asked to plan the power supply for the suit. The suit is going to have a fan to vent CO2, a two way radio (currently it's going to be a walkie talkie that needs to be connected directly to the power supply instead of its native battery), and possibly a raspberry pi and a few LEDs. The suit is going to run on a battery. Now, I'm wondering: what would be the best way to connect all the above apparatus to the battery? should we get a power supply unit or something else?
note: I'm a second year electrical engineering student, I have some basic knowledge of electricity but I'v never planned anything like this.
