http://biolitestove.com/campstove/camp-overview/features/ check this out, I just heard about this on Tech 411. It's a camp stove that converts heat to energy to charge electronics. It would be great for emergency power outages. I works with any USB powered electronics. Charge your gadgets By converting heat from the fire into usable electricity, our stoves will recharge your phones, lights and other gadgets while you cook dinner. Unlike solar, BioLite CampStove is a true on-demand source. No fuel to buy or carry Our stoves cook your meals with nothing but the twigs you collect on your journey, eliminating the need for heavy, expensive, polluting petroleum gas. Quick to light, fast to boil and easy to use. Be prepared The CampStove isn't just for camping; it's great to have on hand when the power goes out in a storm or other natural disasters. You'll be able to cook and keep electronics charged while power lines are down.
