The Adventurer Portable Microwave is on the way to make outdoor lovers meals easier to cook.
The Adventurer Portable Microwave is on the way to revolutionise outdoor cooking. OK, so part of the fun of camping and being outdoors is cooking over a fire. However, there are times when you could really do with bringing some tech with you. The blurb on wayvtech website says:
Heat Food, Anywhere…
Introducing The Adventurer, The World’s First Portable Solid-State RF Food Heater ‘Microwave’. Groundbreaking Technology Has Evolved The Microwave Oven In To A Hand Held Device Designed To Heat Food And Beverages, Anywhere
Their website is actually hard to navigate so we have found as much information for you as we can – we actually think its a great product. The Adventurer uses a rechargeable lithium battery, so it’s ideal for camping, car trips, or your desk lunch, and has all kinds of snazzy features: a digital display, a lock/unlock button so your leftovers won’t spill over your bag, and a little handle. As all things run on batteries it has limited battery life of around 30 mins which is more than enough to warm up your outdoor meal.
