Piranha Dynamo and Rechargeable Shaver

It’s refreshing to find a hand-powered green gadget that’s actually useful, particularly with the Piranha Dynamo and Rechargeable Shaver. With just 1 minute of cranking, you get 80 seconds of shaving time. If you charge up the shaver via the mains, it would take 8 hours and give you around 60 minutes of shaving.

However, if you’re in the middle of nowhere, a hand-powered shaver is a pretty useful eco gadget. If the shaver had some kind of generic charging socket, you could use a solar panel too.

Environmentally Conscious Pest Control Service

Nobody likes having creepy crawlies in their home. There’s nothing nice about sharing your home with wasps, rats, roaches or any other pest. Unfortunately, usually the most effective way to control an infestation in your home is to kill the pest. Insects don’t exactly lend themselves very well to being trapped and released. Some of the chemicals used to kill pests are pretty nasty, so it’s nice seeing a company taking a green approach to pest control. (more…)
