While this is definitely a repost, the full specs weren't there last time.

I searched for BioLite and didn't find anything.

Think it's been posted twice. In all fairness though, they may have been lost in the crash.

I was guilty of one of the reposts so I know it was here. [Beer]

I have one. Works great as a stove, however it is very fuel hungry. I was able to get it to charge an iPod but it didn't want to charge my iPhone. In all fairness I only ran it long enough to boil 2 small pots of water and let my daughter roast a marshmallow or two.

Personally if I had to do over I'd likely just buy a traditional camp stove.

Some of the I-pod, I-pad and I-phone cords are not interchangeable, found that out with an I-pod touch gen2 and an I -pad gen1. Go figure........
I marked them with colored electrical tape to keep them straight in case they get thrown in the same bag.....[Tooth]
