BioLite

The BioLite is a wood-burning stove for camping and backpacking with an added bonus.  Heat produced from the flames also powers an electric generator for charging electronic devices in remote areas.  The BioLite can boil a liter of water in 2 and a half minutes, folds to 7.5 x 4.5" and weighs 1lb 10oz.  Relying entirely on the BioLite would require a steady supply of dry kindling but would also eliminate the need to carry any form of liquid fuel.

In addition to being incredibly useful, the BioLite is also environmentally conscious, using less than half as much wood as an open fire and reducing smoke emissions by 95%
