Crowdfunding: Estream Generates Power As You Paddle
Looking for a way to charge your camp gadgets, even on cloudy days? Check out the Kickstarter campaign for Estream, a portable water power generator. They have already exceeded their fundraising goal which means they will be well on their way to production.
Just remove the cover from the capsule, unfold the turbine blades and lock them into place, then attach a carabiner and rope and put it in moving water, or tow it behind you in your canoe. It takes about 4.5 hours to fully charge the built-in battery which in turn will charge up to three smartphones via USB.
Crowdfunding ends September 12th, 2016 so if you are interested in supporting this campaign, be sure to contribute soon.
