haha well yeah, thats true. I'm just curious if you'd have to boil the water, and therefore consume fuel of one form or another, for hours, just to get a single digit % charge. If someone were expending fuel simply to charge their phone in an emergency, when they would have been wiser to conserve their fuel for the night to come, it could be a problem.
