I have an idea for a flame powered HT... http://biolitestove.com/BioLite.html

I could use this thing to recharge my PX-2R 70CM HT.

$129. Not available yet, but they're taking pre-orders, billed when shipped and claim they will ship in time for camping season this year. They have a larger one too.

Magic and cheese...just add beer and you've got yourself a Green Bay Packer!

Clever idea. Might be nice to have along on a camping trip. However, I doubt it will do much to solve the worlds problems in poverty stricken regions except perhaps keep a few cell phones charged, that is for the few that are lucky enough have functional cell phones.
