This Recycled Circuit Board Box is a great little box for storing all those bits and pieces that often end up strewn around your computer. Made from recycled rectangles of motherboard, the box is an ideal way to keep your desk tidy while displaying your environmental and technological interests.

The Recycled Circuit Board Box has been created by Two’s Company to provide you with a cool geeky box for your small storage needs. The box has been created from recycled printed circuit boards (PCBs). As mentioned with Circuit Board Pencil Holder, Circuit Board Frames, and other such circuit board products, many PCBs are created daily. They can be found in almost all electrical products, from small boards in remote controls to the motherboard inside a PC. These boards contain mercury, lead and cadmium and so are not suitable for landfill, though many end up as such. Discarded motherboards are not just those that have come to the end of their useful life, many can be obsolete from the moment they are produced, or contain a tiny flaw causing them to be unusable.

Finding a use for these PCBs and re-purposing them into useful daily items can help to cut down the amount of unnecessary waste created each day. The Circuit Board Box is a great addition to any household, with its modern high-tech style, and obvious geek appeal.  The box measures  19.5 cm x 10.7 cm x 7.6 cm (7.5 in x 4.2 in x 3 in). The box is ideal for storing stationary bits and pieces, your mouse, or other such clutter helping you to have a tidier more productive workspace…or just as a box anywhere in your home!

The Recycled Circuit Board Box is just $13.84 and qualifies for free shipping if you spend over $25.

The T2 is a fanless dual core PC that uses substantially less electricity than a standard PC. This small and exceptionally quiet PC contains all the powerful components we expect within a PC today, while using only 21 watts on average.

The T2 by Aleutia is able to run silently while using very little energy due to its use of a passively cooled Intel Atom processor. This prevents the PC from requiring a fan to cool the system, something which is well known for causing a lot of noise while requiring a high amount of electricity. The T2 also makes use of an integrated GPU and memory controller to further lower its power requirements. This helps to allow the PC to be able to still allow playback of 720p HD video while only requiring 21 watts on average.

A great amount of thought has gone into the choice of components within the T2. For example the hard drives on offer for use with the PC have been chosen due to their ability to produce only a slight whir. The T2 can be powered through a 12V DC input. This allows you to be able to run the PC from a car battery, great for those requiring a computer while out with a caravan or for use in a car. This ability also helps to make the computer a great choice for those who have a solar power system, as it can be run straight from a direct current battery without requiring the wasteful inverter most devices need. The T2 features two pairs of USB 2.0 ports at the front of the machine, while the back of the machine features PS/2 ports, VGA ports, a further 4 x USB 2.0 ports, Gigabit LAN, and Audio In/Out as well as the PCs 12V DC input.

The T2 has an industrial galvanized steel chassis and comes with a choice of mounting options to suit your needs. It can be VESA mounted or wall mounted depending on the type of brackets you select when purchasing. The PC can be supplied with either Windows 7 (either Pro or Home) or Ubuntu 10.10, alternatively it can be supplied without an OS installed allowing you to install whatever you wish.

The T2 is great for use as an ‘always on’ server due to the use of Wake-on-Lan (WOL), PXE network boot, and auto booting after power loss, this also means that it will turn on when power is sent to it, allowing it to be placed even in a difficult to reach area as you will not need to press a power up button. The T2 is a powerful compact PC that will run efficiently and quietly while requiring very little electricity.

The Recycled Circuit Board Photo Frame has been constructed from discarded motherboards. The frame allows you to display photographs in a way any technology geek will appreciate which gives a purpose to materials that would otherwise be discarded to landfill.

The Recycled Circuit Board Photo Frame has been created by Two’s Company. The frame comes in two sizes: 3 in x 3 in and 4 in x 6 in perfect for many standard sized photos. The framework is constructed from recycled printed circuit boards (PCBs). As mentioned with Circuit Board Clocks, Credit Card Holders, Coasters and other such circuit board products, many PCBs are created daily. Most pieces of electronics require one and so many are created in a range of sizes. One use for PCBs is as motherboards inside a PC.

The electronic equipment that PCBs are found in is largely seen to be disposable, to be discarded rather than fixed when broken. Because of this there is a very high sustained demand for many different types of electronics and so there is a high demand for these boards. The constant demand for these PCBs has lead to them being produced in very large quantities, many of them fail the stringent quality controls and so are never used while some never see use as they become obsolete as technology advances. The circuit boards are not easily recycled and many do not dispose of them correctly when an electronic item has come to the end of its useful life. Many are even sent on mass to landfill.

Two’s Company have taken PCBs in the form of computer motherboards and have re-purposed them into items of use, the frame provides a talking point in any room while displaying your photos in a modern setting. The Recycled Circuit Board Photo Frame makes a perfect gift for anyone with a passion for technology and/or the environment. The frame helps to give a motherboard a new life as a useful and decorative item that will suit any room.

The Recycled Circuit Board Photo Frame makes a perfect gift for just $9.19.

The Western Digital Caviar Green range of SATA hard drives provide energy efficient, low power memory storage for your computing needs. The hard drives are available in capacities up to 2 TB and can use up to 40% less energy than standard computing equivalents.

The Caviar Green SATA hard drives have been created by Western Digital. Their aim was to design a range of hard drives that are suitable for both business and home use that are cool, quiet and eco-friendly. These hard drives allow you to have the size of disk storage you require even up to the high capacity of 2 TB without using the high amounts of electricity standard hard drives consume. Many operating systems (such as Windows Vista) and software can be very storage intensive, causing many to find they do not have much room left on their hard drives for things such as photos, music or home videos. By providing hard drives that are up to 2 TB in size, the Western Digital Caviar Green drives provide plenty of space for modern computer usage.

The Caviar Green hard drives are suitable for users who require quiet systems. The main noise from computer use are the fans keeping the systems running at the correct temperatures. These hard drives run at cooler temperatures than standard hard drives and as such require substantially less assisted cooling by fans helping them to run quietly. The hard drives use up to 40% less electricity than a standard hard drive due to a number of systems designed to help then run as efficiently as possible. The IntelliPower system helps to carefully balance the spin speed, transfer rate and caching algorithms designed to deliver significant power savings while maintaining solid performance. The IntelliSeek system calculates the optimum seek speeds which help the hard drive work at a lower power consumption causing less noise and vibration. The hard drives also feature a low power spin up which allows them to draw less electricity in startup than standard drives which allows lower peak loads.

The Caviar Green hard drives each have a 32 MB cache and are available in capacities of 500 GB, 750 GB, 1 TB, 1.5 TB and 2 TB. Western Digital believe the hard drives can save around 4-5 watts compared to standard hard drives, helping you to choose the size of hard drive you require with peace of mind that you are using a cooler, quieter hard drive that will consume less energy than a standard equivalent.

The Western Digital Caviar Green hard drives start at around $60 for a 1TB drive, and around $100 for a 2TB drive.

The HiSaver is a surge protected mains-power strip designed to be used by your PC and up to 4 of its peripherals. The device connects to a motion sensor which allows it to cut all power to the 4 peripheral points when no motion has been detected for over 10 minutes.

The HiSaver has been designed to help save energy by turning off a PCs electrical peripherals when the computer is not in use. Often a computer is left on for a reason for example to run a virus scan or when compiling code, the peripherals to the computer at these times are not required, there is no need for devices such as speakers, a printer, or even the monitor to be working while the computer is left unattended. These devices during these times are drawing a lot of electricity to keep running, energy that is needlessly wasted.

The HiSaver has been designed to make sure that the power supply to the computer is not interrupted, but that when no motion has been sensed for over 10 minutes the power to the 4 points on the powerbar for peripherals is cut. This allows you to save energy and thus money without having to unplug devices or having to remember to turn each one off individually. The motion sensor has a motion range that is 4 m (13 ft) long and 2 m (6.5 ft) wide. Most of us will move a little every 10 minutes when sat at a computer, even if only to move the mouse, some though may find that the 10 minute period is not long enough.

The HiSaver also features very high surge protection at 3044 joules to help protect your delicate electrical systems. The device should help reduce your energy usage without impacting on the use of your computing systems. There is some debate however that the drain of power to reactivate some devices (such as printers) would drain more electricity than saved if the period of absence was short. Overall the system should make a difference, especially for those that are prone to leave a computer and all its systems running while being absent for hours at a time, it may though not be suitable for those that frequently leave a room throughout a day for short amounts of time.
