Biolite Stove


So I found this camp stove from Biolite in a recent Popular Science magazine.   I tracked down the web site and investigated for my self.     The stove weighs in at just over 2lbs.   Not bad for backpacking.   My Whisperlite and white gas easily hit that mark when full.   The nice thing about this is that it fully nests and is roughly the size of a water bottle when nested.    It burns only wood - they claim it can boil water in 5 minutes.   And it is capable of charging at 2W your electronic devices.   All for $129.00.    It is so new, however, that orders are being filled on a first come first serve basis.

  

Here is a little video demonstrating how it works from the company.




The following video is one from a customer that posted this on youtube.    This one shows how to assemble and start it.
