CampStove from BioLite, $129, allows you to cook your food and charge you iphone all by burning twigs or anything else you can get your hands on.
How it works
BioLite Stoves convert heat to electricity that powers a fan to make the fire ultra-efficient. Extra electricity can be used to charge small electronics like mobile phones and LED lights.
No fuel to buy or carry
Stoves cook your meals with nothing but the twigs you collect on your journey, eliminating the need for heavy, expensive, polluting petroleum gas.
Charge your gadgets
By converting heat from the fire into usable electricity, CampStove will recharge your phones, lights and other gadgets while you cook dinner. Unlike solar, BioLite CampStove is a true on-demand source.
Damnit. We were just building one of these. Huge bummer.
So I can charge it but does it work in the woods? Or are we camping in tahoe city next to McDonald’s?
How about we enjoy the outdoors and leave the iPhone at home/ in the car.
Leave it at home and be with nature
you can’t do what you want because BoGnar righteously said so.
Now, if I can just get a signal so I can text my friends.
Definitely built for the iPhone crowd. I just patented a mobile 3g hotspot powered by human feces.
what a load of crap. Ha!
