Waterpebble is a tool designed to take the effort out of modifying behavior in order to save water in the shower. This clever device monitors water going down the drain during a shower. At its first use, Waterpebble memorizes the first shower and logs it as a benchmark. Then in the future, Waterpebble flashes from green, to yellow to red to indicate when to finish showering. For every shower, Waterpebble fractionally reduces the shower time, helping to save water. The device may be reset as required. Waterpebble is available for £7.25 from www.waterpebble.com.
