Description

Have you ever wondered how much energy you waste leaving your PC sitting idle while you're away from your desk? Quite a lot it would seem, and all of it adds up over the years creating a hefty carbon footprint. That's where the Eco-Button steps in. 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 or a quick lunch 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 the Eco Button software will also show you how much it would have cost to leave the computer on - genius, and fun too!

Features:

  • 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.

saving the planet?

Great little gizmo for all of us who leave our computers on while we pop off to do something else. fitted it on monday and five days later it tells me I have saved 1.49kg of co2 , how true that is I don't know but it must be better than leaving the computer on while it is not in use!

Environmentally Friendly Fun

This little thing is great - ok so you're not saving masses of energy each time you leave your desk, but it really mounts up fast. It's also provided scope for a whole new level of office pranks - install the software on your co-workers pcs, connect the button to the back and then press it on the sly - hours of fun! Well worth the money - for you AND the polar bears!

Great gadget

The EcoButton is a great idea, reduces power use when the computer is on standby.
