Another "green" gadget- "BioLite" looks interesting!!

So I am jazzed about my pending arrival of my stove, so I go on youboob to watch the videos from the people who have already received theirs and are checking them out for the first time.
The first video I watch, the guy is complaining that it smoked too much when he put green sticks in the stove that he just cut off his tree.
I wonder if he watched his own video later and realized how nieve his statement was?
And it didn't burn the grass I just mowed from my front lawn either !!!!!!

Boy, I hope he doesn't hurt himself with this stove.

I got mine last week, I'll be making a video about it soon, lets just say its pretty awesome.

I just put in some branches and twigs I found around the yard, timed it, came to a rolling boil in about 4mins, pretty impressive.

Yep, I just got mine too and it's pretty awesome. It's definitely something to at least keep in the truck for "just incase" reasons. It works really well to create coals too in the need of starting a grill or a larger fire.

FYI, I just received mine! I did not receive any notification that they were sending it.
Charging it now. We will be playing with fire tonight!:wings:

Just FYI for people turning it on and wondering why it randomly turns back on when powering off. The system turns back on when powered off to help cool down the embers.

For more efficient wood burning, wouldn't a small hand-crank air blower work wonders and cost less? That's what I keep thinking every summer when I do my vacation campfires. A bit more air through such a device would certainly beat my "wolf-huffing-'n-puffing-to-blow-the-house-down" impression. I'd think for 3rd world people, they'd appreciate that better than a rather expensive thing that could more easily fail than some basic mechanical device. I wonder if these things in a more sturdy form would work for poor folks around the planet....
