Biolite has created a new 'BaseCamp' camping stove that not only allows grilling but can also charge your gadgets while there is no charging station nearby.
This portable device harnesses the thermal energy of burning biomass from things like twigs, sticks, and pine cones to generate power for charging up phones, GPS devices, tablets and other similar equipments, CNET.com reported.
It can generate 5W of electricity which you can tap into via a USB and it can also throw in a USB light. Adding to its charm, the design gives out minimized smoke.
BaseCamp costs around 299 dollars.
