renewable water and power ersa There’s products that really add to the quality of life and then there’s products that can actually help you survive it.

Whether its months in the brambles of the desolate Australian interior or days spent escaping robot swarms the Ersa, renewable water and power generator is one item you’ll want in your pack.

It’s transportable, it’s made of ABS and it can save your pasty hide from dehydration.


The Ersa is designed by Scott Norrie of South Coogee, Australia. It’s his first entry in the Create the Future Design Contest. His weapons of choice are a pencil, paper, and SolidWorks.

This product makes sense on a lot of levels, but what I like about it is the idea of combining both water and power in a case you can lug around with you. I can see every humanoid citizen utilizing this even if they are not wandering the barren plains in search of other human survivors. It just makes sense. Take a look.

Disclosure: I do not know Scott. He didn’t contact to post this, but I would have if he did. You should also take a look at some of the other designs in the ‘Create the Future’ design contest. For some reason it seems like the ranking are based on pageviews, which I don’t mind at all helping out with.

    I bet Bear in "Man vs Wild" has been using this secretly on his show! This is a great post Josh!
  • This is simply fascinating Josh. I wonder what the driving force is that generated the idea for this product? I can see it being used by a lot of people who like camp or hike and remote areas but still want to be connected to civilization. When you are out in remote areas keeping your cell phone or GPS unit charged could be the difference in staying alive or biting the dust.
