New Flameless Water Heater for Nalgene Bottles

| | Comments (0) | TrackBacks (0)

From Danish company Heatgear comes an interesting new device designed to heat water from within a standard water container.  The Heatstick screws on to a Nalgene or similar bottle and uses infrared radiation to heat water to approximately 90°C (194°F) before it automatically turns itself off. Weighing only a pound, the device was originally developed for military use but is now being marketed as a "personal stove:" "A flameless personal stove dedicated for heating and sterilizing water for dehydrated rations, beverages and personal hygiene; No preheating, no setting up, no cooling off, no stabilizers, no stove bases, no heat reflectors and no hanging kits - Just sheer ease of use, safety and performance."
