    Here’s an ultimate energy saver. It just needs water to run!

     

    Bedol Water Powered Alarm Clocks really do their part to reduce our carbon footprint by running on tap water alone! When they first arrived I filled the reservoir with water wondering if this really could be possible. With seconds, the digital clock started running. Amazing. There are three versions of the water clock. I showed the latest two. The smaller one, the Water Droplet clock, is appropriately sculpted in the shape of – well, a water droplet. It can run up to sixteen weeks or more on just plain tap water! (They don't recommend using bottled water.) Just refill the water reservoir when you see it running low through the translucent case. The Water Droplet retails for $29 and is available in four colors. The newest eco-friendly Bedol Water Alarm is the Smiley and it’s available in six colors: Red, green, orange, blue, yellow and charcoal. The clock’s base acts as a fill spout cap for water (approximately four cups) held in the reservoir which powers the clock. It can run an amazing four months (or more) between water changes. Actual operation times varies depending on the content of local tap water. The clock’s power plant employs the ions in water to generate electrical current.  Each clock features a daily or hourly alarm and easy to set 12 hour or 24 hour clock.
