All the reviews I have seen seem to agree that it takes around 4 hours to for the BioLite fully charge an iPhone. For the same amount of weight you could carry 3 Anker 12,000 mAh batteries, which I believe would provide on the order of 15 charges, at a cost of $150.
Unless you have scouts tending the BioLite constantly, I think it is definitely not a solution for groups.
- thret 12y agoFortunately scout labour is free :)
- hrjet 12y agoBut can the batteries cook your dinner?
- mattgrice 12y agoWell, it only boils water. For that purpose some competitors would be: - Backcountry Boiler, which is also wood-fueled and 1/4 the weight. - Jetboil Sol, half the weight including fuel canister. canister good for 20+ boils - alcohol or esbit burner + titanium cup and fuel - less than 1/3 the weight including fuel The only scenario I can think of where the BioLite makes sense is if you have no access to electricity for weeks at a time. Even then I think solar panels make more sense.
