News from Bio Lite
on: May 10, 2016, 04:17:05 PM
The folks that brought us those little camp stoves that convert wood to electricity have just announced a new product- the Base Lantern.

https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/biolite/biolite-baselantern-smartgrid-goes-off-grid?utm_source=prod_announcement&utm_medium=prod_announcement&utm_campaign=kickstarter_baselantern&utm_term=20160510&utm_content=baselantern_announcement&_bta_tid=38604788491054717889070474167191805974903025052411240631296900735698436

I have to say I have been something of a fan of their products for a while and I really think this might be pretty cool too.

That looks like a great idea.  Pair that with a packable solar panel and you're golden. :tu:

This reminds me that I still want the base camp.  I will have to impulse buy that before summer camping season.
PM me or email sakmodder [at] gmail . com if you are looking for custom SAK work.

I really like the look of that!
Combined with my fold out solar panel that would be great for camping trips, and when visiting cabins without power.

To bad they operate with a $50 shipping fee to Norway. Guess Ill have to wait for theese to arrive in the stores.
