Camp Stove --> USB power

Post by Eric »

Check out this Biolite camp stove that pushes out power to USB device (phones, gps, etc)! Pretty cool :cool: 2 LB. Looks like they're starting to take orders.

Sounds good. I wonder how efficient? It took a reasonably large solar panel just to keep my iphone running last year. Would love to find a way of charging the Mac. Have you tried it? Could be worthwhile bunging them off an email!

Cheers, Paul

I thought of you right off! :D

Can you charge a Mac via USB? I'm guessing not even close, but perhaps an iPad if the USB pushes enough juice. I think it would considering this is designed for charging rather than as a com line.

Not for sale yet. Well... they haven't shipped any yet.
