This one’s going to knock your socks off especially if you’re a fan of innovative design. The CampStove 2+ from BioLite takes the original award-winning stove to the next level.
Boil water or cook a meal, and while you’re at it, the heat creates electricity that drives a fan to aerate the fire. The excess energy is stored onboard for charging your devices from an integrated 3200mAh battery which offers 20% more juice than the previous model. Just add renewable biomass fuel such as twigs, pinecones or wood pellets and once lit, the stove will produce an efficient smokeless fire for cooking and will generate 5V of power to charge your devices. This unit can also be pre-USB charged at home before you head off and will then keep your devices powered without the need for fire. There's also a LED smart dashboard that makes it easy to see the power output, fire strength and fan speed settings at a glance. The honeycomb mesh on the outside of the stove adds heat protection, and the pot stand makes it easy to accommodate separate BioLite accessories.
The BioLite CampStove 2+ charges your devices, stores power for later and eliminates the need to pay for fuel. What more could you want from a compact and portable stove?
Is this stove unusable in Australian summer due to necessary total firebans ?

G'day Carol,
We wouldn't advise using this on total fire ban days. Most districts will not allow any wood flames, but it's best to double-check with the local fire service in your area.

What is the maximum weight pot that can go on this stove?
Sharon - Bega, NSW(3 years ago)
G'day Sharon,
This information isnt provided by BioLite, but as its a small stove designed for lightweight adventures, its reasonable to assume that any cookware designed for hiking will be suitable. Hiking cookware is generally super lightweight and rarely exceeds 3L capacity. You wouldn't want anything greater than 20cm or so for stability purposes.
