This is my BioLite camp stove on a winter backpacking trip. I proudly own one of the OG camp stoves, with the grill attachment to go along with the lights Oh yea, big fan. The BioLite stove is great for anything, I have taken it on backpacking or car camping trips. I even use the BioLite grill in my backyard instead of the Weber. The big reason for using this over other stoves is you can use any burnable material for your fuel. I can grab a hand full of dead and down twigs/wood scraps and fuel my fire for the night. This removes the need to lug a can of stinky fuel with me. The camp stove is worth the added weight and size as it produces electricity from the heat for charging electronics and a fan to keep the fire burning hot and clean.
Check out the new camp stove 2. I have the old camp stove and would love to upgrade but unless steem hits $15 a pop I probably wont be getting the newer lighter and slicker upgrade.
A firepit to enjoy fires by the house, cabin or beach, once the flames have settled you can use the grill and cook a nice meal.
This bad boy has the same large battery pack to turbo charge your fires keeping the fire smoke free and the burn is more efficient. Mind blown feature, you can control this fire from your smart phone. You still get to use the battery to charge your electronics, you know for that one friend that cant stop checking the price bitcoin on his smart phone.
First thing I asked myself was if the fire pit would be like the stove and generate electricity. Question answered in FAQs section, Bam.
Those stoves feature a thermoelectric generator that produces electricity from the heat of the fire. The FirePit does not – and that's on purpose.If we included thermoelectrics in a design of this scale, the unit would cost upwards of $400-$600 and we didn't want to just do tech for tech's sake. Realizing that we wanted the system to still be self-reliant and self-charging, we opted for a solar cover as a companion to the unit. We really want this project to be affordable to as many folks as possible and this was the right energy solution for it.
Well I guess that's why the kickstarter has raised over ten times the $100,000 goal. I missed out on the early bird special, but got in on the first wave delivering the the firepit on my porch, May 2018 just in time for summer. Second wave is still going, delivering in July. This is a good deal they throw in a free waterproof solar carry case. My prediction is this product will be $250 at REI late next year, so grab the $199 deal while its hot.
