Using the idea of thermoelectricity\u2014generating power from differences in temperature, Power Pot is an easy way to charge your USB devices anywhere you have fire and water.

To be able to have a solution […] that was web-based where you click a button and labels print and you put them on a package was monumental\u2014it was huge for us.
