FlameStower - charging the phone from the fire

At Kickstarter , a campaign to raise funds for the production of hiking portable chargers using a thermoelectric effect to generate energy is successfully underway . The idea itself is not new, but more relevant than ever. If travelers are far from charging mobile devices from solar panels in all cases, then the vast majority have access to fire and water. The output power of the device is comparable to the USB port, so for an hour or two sitting by the fire, you can safely charge the phone.





As I said, the idea is not new. The protruding plate is heated by fire, and water is poured into the container. Due to the temperature difference between these surfaces, the thermocouple generates an electric current.



Robust and compact device has a simple design.

Easier than other chargers. It does not depend on the time of day and weather conditions.





The cost of the device is $ 80

I would like to wait for the appearance of camping bowlers, where a usb port for recharging would be built into the handle :)
