Three Excellent Water and Light-Saving Gadgets

Going green is anything but a fad as this way of living with renewed respect for our environment is seeping into the hearts and minds of people everywhere while also allowing companies to benefit from creating new products and services for customers everywhere. The overall benefits from going green results in one being able to save money, improve their health and most of all, save energy that can be used for later generations in the coming years.

And the place where we can begin doing this is in our homes, so here are three gadgets that are under $ 50 and can save you a lot of energy (read: money) at home:

Gadget #1: Philips EnduraLED

Known to last 25 times more than a normal lightbulb, and is far more efficient in terms of energy compared to the latter, it costs about $ 39.95 and according to experts is definitely worth the cost. The 12.5 watt version of this bulb is enough to light a house up much like the 60-watt build that you might be using.

Gadget #2: Occupancy Sensor Light Switches

Almost 60 % of lighting costs go to rooms that are not occupied by anyone, and while this can drive some people nuts, using this device which is equipped with a motion sensor will ensure that the light is turned off when one leaves the room.

Gadget #3: Bricor & Caroma high-efficiency/ performance shower heads

While conventional showerheads use about 2.5 gallons of water per minute, two efficient showerhead devices such as the Bricor Bravo and Caroma Flow can save almost ten gallons of water in ten minutes of using the shower. One can only imagine how much an entire family can save in a year!
