One small click, one BIG difference…

Are you concerned about climate change? Want to know about a simple way you could go green, make a difference and even save £50 a year? Read on...

Eco Button
  • 1/3 or more of energy used on a PC and monitor is wasted energy
  • That's 1.5 billion kWh of energy all going to waste every year
  • Or in environmental terms, 7,000,000 tonnes of carbon (10% of the UK's climate change levy target)!

There is a simple solution! All of that wasted energy is by us Britons who have become stuck in the habit of leaving our PCs running when not in use. But there is now a handy little USB gadget that fits conveniently into your life, breaks bad habits and even helps you save money. Enter Eco button!

Eco button is a discreet USB device that acts as a reminder and a prompt for you to press the ecobutton at every opportunity whenever your computer is going to be left idle, helping you save money and the environment. This could be from taking a phone call or break, to doing paperwork or going to lunch and meetings where otherwise the computer would normally be left on.

How does Eco button work?

Eco Button

When the Eco button is pressed your computer enters energy saving 'ecomode' – that's the most efficient, lowest power mode available, which actually draws only the same nominal power as when the computer and monitor are turned off! When you need to use the computer again, simply press any key to instantly return to where you left off. Easy!

There's even an on-screen meter which shows you exactly what's been saved in both power cost and carbon footprint, so you can monitor how well you're doing and feel pretty good about it too! Order yours today – whether it's two minutes, two hours or two days, one small click can make a huge difference.



*Savings are based on a typical scenario with an average sized machine (175 watts PC + 35 watts LCD monitor). Electricity costs are at £0.16 Kwh and eco button used for 4 hours per day for 1 year.
