I came across this website for BioLite that sells camp stoves that can charge portable devices, like phones, iPods, Kindles, and more…thought it sounds pretty good so wanted to share with you campers, boaters and/or beach barbeque lovers (S’Mores anyone?)…also looks good for an emergency kit. If you buy it from REI, you’ll get $13 back in your annual refund if you are a member.

That’s incredibly cool! For the record, it’s not much more expensive than any other ultralight backpacking stove. I carry a GPS with me to record my tracks, and lots of batteries to keep it working while I’m hiking … a way to charge them in the field (without relying on the sun – near Seattle we don’t get much sun) would be a dramatic help for me.
I thought so too! I used to go backpacking for days at a time so I know every ounce counts and batteries are heavy. I also like Magellan’s website for travel gear. Seattle is so beautiful but I’m a California girl and don’t think I could handle all the rain!
