Water Pebble is the answer, the Water Pebble is a pebble shaped monitor that you put in the shower and it monitors the amount of water you use. Using the traffic light style indicator, it will be easy the see when its time to switch off. Also, the clever little thing will remember your previous record and over time will become quicker there by saving you water and therefore energy.

With the hot summer weather we have been enjoying, the amount of people having bbq has been rising. Though if your at a the beach or at a camping site, you cannot bring a conventional bbq, therefore a mobile bbq will be a more wiser choice.

An example will be the Darwin BBQ, as this is an all in one bbq complete with strap, so you can put it on shoulder when your done ( of course after it has cooled down). The Darwin BBQ does not require any extras as it is all self contained in its carry case.

With the summer almost here and the everincreasing warm weather, a cold drink to quench our thirst will be essential. So, when you need some ice for your drink, getting ice cubes from conventional ice trays, can often include banging the tray over the sink which results in half of the tray being emptied which can be annoying especially if you only wanted one or two ice cubes.

The QuickSnap Ice Tray changes that because of the hand “switch” next to each of the ice compartments, getting one or two ice cubes will be a snitch. All that is required is that you twist the tray first to loosen the ice cubes and then press the “switch” which will push out the ice cube. The QuickSnap Ice Tray has a added feature you don’t touch the ice cubes.
