Anybody out there have any experience with the Biolite Stoves? Yeah, yeah, I know...we usually consider that leaving the electronic devices at home would be a wonderful thing to do to escape, but there are some that could be useful in the backcountry or even on a week-end jaunt. This is a rather interesting concept...basically uses some sort of thermocouple type device to power a fan to supply a flow of air to the wood and also to something that would recharge via a USB port. Granted, one might consider it heavy for a backpack at 33 ounces, but consider not only the cook stove you would carry, but the fuel you would need to carry to cook with (most liquid fuel weighs in at about 3/4 of an ounce per ounce), the container(s) for that fuel and the limitations therein. This thing runs on whatever small pieces of wood you pick up along the way.
No, I am not trying to sell it, just curious if anyone had experience with one or what were y'all's thoughts.
