The philosophy of water conservation is simple and uncomplicated. Every instant you save a drop of water, you automatically create one. It is obviously evident that we have absolutely no commercial ability to create water and even till today take the assistance of some of the most expensive technology in the world to help create a shower. Fresh water resources are scarce on this planet and I have almost got tired of reminding people that only 2-3% of the planet’s surface is filled with fresh water. With most of that being locked away in the polar ice caps, we have very little to work with.
This is exactly the reason why water conservation has become such an essential and important issue in the past decade or two. Domestic Water measuring unit is a device that can be attached to standard tap and shower fittings in our homes. The unit accurately measures the water consumption from a single outlet and by increases user awareness may help reduces water consumption. The consumption is measured by an internal turbine and sensor and the water usage is displayed in liters on an LCD screen. The unit also includes an internal generator that recharges the batteries as the unit operates, therefore no battery replacement is necessary.
I really like the idea of using the internal generator to power the LCD display. IT shows that the designer of this gadget, Viktor Legin is really street smart. It also shows that one can just think a fraction out of the box to make sure we get the best possible results. The product is a compact unit with a slick finish. Its form does not allow for any water containment resulting in a quick dry and no scum build-up. The form does not clash with the tap and shower fittings and will match most kitchens and bathrooms to an extent. I really like this as it is a lot more accurate for measuring water consumption than just time.
