BioLite Camp Stove is a rather interesting new product that uses "bio" energy to charge your iPhone or to provide current for almost any kind of electronic device. You can see from the video clip above that we are talking about an ingenious device that produces electricity by simply burning some pieces of wood. With the BioLite Stove you can prepare a meal when you are camping but at the same time you can charge an iDevice or provide power to a lamp or maybe even a small TV.
Forget the fuel. Our stoves cook your meals with nothing but the twigs you collect on your journey, eliminating the need for heavy, expensive, polluting petroleum gas. It's quick to light, fast to boil and clean to use. Charge your gadgets. By converting heat from the fire into usable electricity, our stoves will recharge your phones, lights and other gadgets while you cook dinner. Have fun. Like a campfire, you can sit around the CampStove and watch the flames dance as you roast marshmallows and tell stories with friends. Stay green. By using renewable resources for fuel instead of petroleum, you're reducing your carbon footprint. You'll also keep fuel canisters out of the landfill.

The idea behind BioLite is interesting because the system not only provides electricity in areas where such a thing does not exist, but also eliminates part of the smoke produced by burning wood. Biolite Camp Stove is not yet available for purchase, but it can be pre-ordered for $130, but I don't know if the manufacturers deliver in Romania.
