Via email, a fan-forced camper's-sized rocket stove that uses a thermoelectric thingummy to power its fan and charge your handheld electronics.

I... can certainly see uses for this.  I'm not nearly the outdoorsy type, and I'd like to have one around.  I may not be able to fully rationalize a purchase, but I'd be willing to make an effort at it, and sigh despondently when I realize that paying the kid's tuition will win out in the end.
