Half-Life 2: Episode One Hints
Armor Battery Tip
1 of 4: Wait on the ledge where you drop down until a scanner flies into range.
2 of 4: Pull it in with the gravity gun, then quicksave before throwing it at the floor to smash it.
3 of 4: If you don't get an armor battery from it, quickrestore and try again.
4 of 4: The battery is useless to you now, but it'll come in handy later on near the end of Chapter 2 if you bother to take it all the way there with you.
