150807 Helpful Hints O-Rings for cords
EASY WAY to store and manage cords of all sizes (Earphones, USB cables, Electrical cords, hose, even straps).
>Rubber bands die and break after a few years.
>Twistie ties take time and get lost.
The advantage of O-Rings is they last for a few decades, easy to use, crushable for storage, cheap and readily available, and you can "store" them ON the cord when cord is in use.  I keep a few spare assorted size O-rings on a carabiner clip on my backpack and fanny pack, and in my car.
CHEAP - Harbor Freight has a box of 382 O-Rings in 30 sizes for $7.99.
Can also use vacuum cleaner belts for larger cords or hoses.

141229 Biolite Camp Stove
I finally got to try my Christmas Camp Stove. ... Report.
Works as advertised. Boiled water quickly.
The blower really does produce a very hot flame.
Finger to thumb size sticks burn longer than twigs.
The outside does not get very hot... can touch?
The blue device is MY Volt/Amperage meter plugged into the USB port... it works.
Cools fast and is easy to clean.
The outside Stays totally clean.
