More uses than an iPad



 Travel Stove Creates Electricity While It Cooks 
... BioLite, a portable and fuel efficient cookstove that uses half as much fuel as a camp fire, and heats food and water faster than a petroleum fueled camp stove. But what makes it really stand out is that it is capable of generating electricity. The heat from the fire powers a small fan which improves the cooking efficiency and leaves 1-2 watts to(very slowly) charge an electric device like a cell phone or gps unit.


...this one is ready to hit the market later this year for about $80.

Can an iPad boil water, cook soup, power itself, provide heat? I don't think so. And the BioLite will be around $80. Cannot wait!
