Campers and explorers looking for a convenient way to both provide light and recharge their mobile devices may be interested in a new piece of kit which has been created by BioLite in the form of the Bluetooth controlled BioLite BaseLantern.
BioLite famous for its wood burning stove that is capable of charging your smartphone and tablet devices, has since released a number of new additions to their range of outdoor gadgets.
The latest BioLite BaseLantern has once again been launched via Kickstarter and has already raised over $350,000 thanks to over 2,200 backers with still 24 days remaining on the campaign. Watch the promotional video below to learn more about its features, design and inspiration. BioLite explain a little more about their new outdoor light :
The BioLite BaseLantern is the world’s first flatpack lantern that combines breakthrough edge-lighting with Bluetooth connectivity to bring you a portable lighting solution that doubles as your own miniature smartgrid. No bigger than the sandwich you pack in your lunch, the BaseLantern can light large group settings, charge phones and other devices, and offer powerful real-time analytics so you get the most from your off-grid energy.
1. Illuminate large areas with a lantern that fits in the palm of your hand; extend light around your site with the integration of BioLite string lighting. 
2. The rechargeable internal battery doubles as a portable powerbank to charge phones, tablets, and other devices.
3. Unlock the functionality of a mini smart grid from your phone with features like Proximity Activation, Full Color Control, and Real Time Energy Analytics.
