Roughly the size of a Zippo lighter and taking inspiration from its design, the Risolves DualFuel system combines both a traditional flameless coil together with a compact battery pack allowing you to top up your smartphone when required. Designed to be an everyday carry (EDC), the gadget provides two types of emergency power at your fingertips. Check out the demonstration video below to learn more about the DualFuel designed by a team of developers based in London.
Design and Functionality
The DualFuel system is not just a practical tool but also a stylish accessory. Available in both matte black, gold, zinc, and stainless steel, the DualFuel is designed to fit seamlessly into your daily life. The sleek and compact design ensures that it can easily be carried in your pocket, bag, or even attached to a keychain. The device measures just 40mm in length, 60mm in height, and 17mm in depth, making it incredibly portable.
The flameless coil is perfect for lighting cigarettes or starting a fire in an emergency situation without the need for traditional fuel. This makes it an eco-friendly option as well. The compact battery pack, on the other hand, provides a quick and convenient way to charge your smartphone or other small electronic devices. This dual functionality makes the DualFuel an indispensable tool for anyone who values preparedness and convenience.
Materials and Build Quality
The DualFuel is constructed from high-quality materials to ensure durability and longevity. The lower casing and upper lid are made from zinc alloy, providing a robust and sturdy exterior. The swing bracket and hinge needle are crafted from stainless steel, adding to the overall durability of the device. The coil casing is made from ABS plastic, known for its high impact resistance and toughness.
The choice of materials not only enhances the durability of the DualFuel but also adds to its aesthetic appeal. The matte black and gold finishes offer a modern and sophisticated look, while the stainless steel and silver options provide a classic and timeless appearance. This variety in color and finish ensures that there is a DualFuel to suit every style and preference.
Practical Applications
The DualFuel is designed to be an everyday carry item, making it perfect for a wide range of practical applications. Whether you’re an outdoor enthusiast, a frequent traveler, or someone who simply likes to be prepared, the DualFuel has something to offer. For campers and hikers, the flameless coil can be a lifesaver when it comes to starting a fire in windy or wet conditions. The compact battery pack ensures that your smartphone remains charged, allowing you to stay connected even in remote locations.
For urban dwellers, the DualFuel offers a convenient way to charge your phone on the go, eliminating the need to carry bulky power banks or search for charging stations. The sleek design and compact size make it easy to carry, ensuring that you always have a reliable source of power and fire at your fingertips.
Available in both matte black, gold, zinc, and stainless steel, the DualFuel is available to back with early bird pledges starting from £37. Worldwide shipping is expected to take place during July 2019, making it accessible to users around the globe.
