Colorado startup Howl Campfires fired its best shot at a real problem upon its launch: the lack of any useful warmth coming from a portable propane fire. The difficulty was, it put so much coin and effort into the solution, it created a whole new problem: the ludicrous price of a portable propane fire capable of delivering useful warmth (that's this baby). With its second product, Howl looks to find a more practical mix of performance and cost. The all-new R1 fire pit is much cheaper, more compact and manages to spit out a flame nearly high enough to singe your beard hairs.
