Fancy saving money on your water bill and helping the environment? Then check out the Waterpebble. It’s a new green gadget that is designed to raise awareness of your water consumption by monitoring how much water you use in the shower and telling you when to get out!

It’s a small pebble like device that you put in the shower next to the plug and it basically checks how much water is going down the plug hole. This clever little pebble memorises your first shower (from when you start using it) as a benchmark, then gradually sets about reducing the amount of water you use by fractionally reducing your shower time. It does this via a series of traffic lights flashing from green when you start to amber halfway through and finally red when it’s time to get out. It effectively trains you to use less water when you shower without you really having to think about it, all you need to know is red means it’s time to turn off that shower!

Simply set the Waterpebble by pressing a little button located on the back, pop in the shower and then keep an eye on the colours. It can be reset at any time and the battery should last for around 6 months according to the manufacturers.

The Waterpebble is available now and retails for around £8. For more details check out www.waterpebble.com
