BioLite KettleCharge: Boil Water to Charge Your iPhone

There are plenty of awesome emergency iPhone chargers around. They enable you to charge your phone when you don’t have access to a conventional electrical outlet. Biolite’s previous chargers were quite useful for off-grid charging. The KettleCharge is a new charger that lets you use the energy from the water you boil to generate power for your iPhone or even iPad.

Unlike solar and wind chargers, you can use BioLite’s KettleCharge at any time. It works on a wide range of stoves and can charge a wide variety of USB devices. Just fill it with water, place it on a stove, and you are ready to charge your gadget. The KettleCharge is made with stainless steel, aluminum, and high-temperature plastic. It also has a 1250mAh battery and a heat resistant USB extender.

The KettleCharge can charge your phone as fast as wall outlet. 15 minutes of charge provides you with hours of talk time on your phone. You can order one of these for $149.95 and get it in September.
