For his senior thesis at OSU, designer Tylan Tschopp conceived of two camping devices that use manual compressed air storage as their energy source. Why? Because assuming your arms still work, it can't run out of juice, it's lightweight, and there's no hazardous fuels or gases you need to carry with you. Crank up the tank and presto, you've got a heater/stove and a lantern/flashlight.
