Starting life as a Kickstarter project, the Backcountry Boiler weighs just 270 grams and doubles as a canteen. Based on traditional chimney kettles from the Second World War, it takes roughly five minutes to boil about 500ml of water, depending on the fuel and user proficiency. Because it uses natural fuel, there’s no need to carry around gas or other chemical based burners in order to boil water.
The project smashed its funding goal on Kickstarter in the middle of last year, with the project soon becoming available for pre-order. It’s expected to cost around the $US100 mark.
