Camp Stove Boils Water And Charges Phone
 ✖  |
You can boil a quart of water in about 2 min. with the innovative, wood burning, BioLite CampStove. Fed with twigs, chips, pellets or other materials, the CampStove also makes electricity to charge a built-in battery. The battery can then be used to power a fan to super-charge the fire, making it burn hotter and cleaner. Or it can be used to charge cell phones, LED lights and other devices.
A “Direct Conduction Thermoelectric Technology” power pack attaches to the side of the stove. It produces up to 5.5 kW when its metal layers differ in temperature. Electrons move from the warmer layer to the cooler layer and back, producing electricity that’s stored in a lithium ion battery.
The stove is only 8 1/2 in. high and 5 in. wide.
The 2-lb., 1-oz. BioLite CampStove is available for $129 direct from the company website.
The company is also developing a home-sized version called the BioLite HomeStove. It’s initially targeted at India, sub Saharan Africa and other regions where open fire cooking is common. Rosen says it has gained a lot of attention and interest in North American markets, but will not be introduced here, at least in the short term. Target populations are also often off-grid yet rely on cell phones. Like the CampStove, the HomeStove has an accompanying power pack.
