Energy On A Mission
Half the planet lacks safe, reliable access to energy.
BioLite is on a mission to change that - and you play a part.
When you purchase an item from BioLite, a part of that sale is re-invested into our work in sub-Saharan Africa. Together, we have helped over half a million people cook, charge, and light daily life with products that enable families to feel safe, nourished, and connected.
Thank you for helping us bring Energy Everywhere.

Maximizing Your Charge From The Sun - How BioLite Tech Achieves 100% Capacity
- Direct Connect with the Optimal Sun System: Misaligning your solar panel can lead to losing up to 30% of watts available. Our sundial aligns you directly to the sun while the 360 kickstand helps you keep it in the right spot on any terrain
- Maximum Power Point Tracking: BioLite software enables you to draw as much power as possible without overloading the system. The result is faster charge times and no crashes.
- Thin Profiles for Cool Panels Panels lose efficiency when they heat up – so we made our panel ultra thin with minimal materials to dissipate heat quickly.
