The PowerPot X: Most Reliable 10-Watt Portable Generator by David Toledo

It is a small portable generator that doubles as a cooking pot. All it takes is fire and water to make the magic happen. It is extremely durable, easy to use, and has no moving parts! Since our campaign, The PowerPot V has received critical acclaim including the 2013 Backpacker Magazine Editor’s Choice Gear Award. In the past year, we’ve gathered feedback from Kickstarter backers, retailers and pros to make the PowerPot even better. The new, lightweight PowerPot X series marks the next stage in thermoelectric power generation. More power means more time for adventuring and less time spent waiting around for a charge. One challenge we encountered with our early prototypes was charging tablets. Play The PowerPot X series brings many new features to the lineup.

We’ve also included two USB ports on the PowerPot X regulator, so you can charge two devices at once.

E-cat : se chauffer pour 20 EUR par an dès 2013

Reste le chauffage électrique? Encore raté, EDF va augmenter ses prix de 30%. Reste le bois, pas l’idéal pour tout le monde….
