The Wattson - Voted Number 8 in Stuff Magazine’s Top 10 Gadgets 2007
At Mygreatoutdoors we are always looking for ways of saving the planet, and making it a better place for all. The other day I saw this really nice gadget land on my doorstep! Its the Wattson DIY Kyoto and it saves you money (up to 20% off your electricity bills in fact!), all at the same time. It’s like an environmentally friendly swiss army knife, but without the thing for getting stuff out of horses hooves.
This ingenious little white box does all this because it displays the amount of electricity you are using at any given time, through a clever system of colours and numbers. Simply clip the wireless sensor onto your electricity meter (no electrician required!), and stick the Wattson somewhere you can see it (trust us, you’ll want to see it), and watch as it tallies up the power you are using in real time, and tells you the associated cost. Wander round your house switching stuff off, and you’ll see the power (and cost) savings in real time. Just don’t blame us if you end up sitting in the dark for hours! Not that sitting in the dark is a bad thing, especially when the Wattson’s ambient lighting kicks in - just remember that red means your energy usage is high, and blue means it’s low. See, it’s educational as well - is there anything this marvellous box can’t do?
The Wattson can also be connected via USB to your computer (PC and Mac compatible) to download energy usage data, and you can also go online to see how your efforts are contributing to the global effort against climate change by fellow Wattson users.
You can buy the Wattson DIY Kyoto at Outdoorstuff here now for £149.00 - Saving the planet Priceless!
