Go green with The Eco Button at iwantoneofthose.com

With National Go Green day fast approaching it seems only fair that we all chip in and do our bit for the environment.

So iwantoneofthose.com are selling a rather handy eco product called The Eco Button at a price of £12.99 (free delivery), which is set to help you become a friend of the earth!

Plug this little gizmo into your USB port and give it a tap every time you have to leave your desk. Whether it’s for a long drawn out meeting with the boss or drinks at lunchtime the Eco Button makes sure that your PC and monitor draw as little power as possible. Not only do you get to see how many carbon units you’ve saved when you reactivate the PC but, and this is the best bit, the Eco Button software will also show you how much cash would have been spent if you’d left the computer on – genius, and fun too!

Features include:

  • A USB powered Eco Button that will switch your computer over to eco-mode.
  • Reduce your carbon footprint every time you leave your desk.
  • The downloadable software will work out the money and carbon units you’ve saved every time you use the button.
  • It will even keep a running total for as long as you keep using the button.
  • In order to produce an accurate cost and energy saving tracker, the set-up asks you numerous questions relating to the power consumption of your PC so best to have your manual to hand.
  • Requires a USB port.
  • The Eco Button is not Mac compatible.
  • Suitable for ages 8 years+
  • Size: 5.5 x 1.5cm.
