As people are getting more concerned about the environment and thinking ways to lessen expenses, a lot of concepts are now brought into production. Even unconventional elements are now being found a practical function. Can you imagine driving your car without steering wheel, without petrol, and even without the typical four wheels? How about using air while driving? Yup yup, this is happening. This vehicle, introduced as AirPod by MDI International, was recently shown in the 2009 Geneva Motor Show. Actually, AirPod can be driven using the energy contained from compressed air that is stored at 5,000 pounds per square inch pressure. With its air tank that can contain up to 210 liters, you can deliver your goods in the neighborhood, visit a friend, or go to a shop as the AirPod has a range of over 112 miles. Its engine can produce 8 horsepower or take you for a ride in less than 45 mph. Say goodbye to high amount of petrol when you use this vehicle. One euro per refill, isn’t that far economical?

Looking outside the AirPod, it can accommodate three passengers; one for the driver, of course facing forward, while the other two facing backward. Don’t expect the usual steering wheel because you will now control a joystick to lead your way. The AirPod also makes use of only three wheels, reducing one wheel expense compared to typical four-wheel car, right? Emission-free, light-weight, and small-size – Airpod is really another creation keeping money and environment in mind.

It even includes an alarm which can alert users when they already exceed their desired energy use.

So why not grab this now and see for yourself what TED can do to your savings. You’ll be saving the environment as well. An electrician can easily install TED in about 10-15 minutes. If you are knowledgeable of house wiring, you can also install this device with no trouble.

I was typing some documents on my computer the other day then suddenly, the power went out. Good thing that I had a UPS connected to my PC, so I was able to save my document and copy it to my flash drive before turning off my computer.

UPS stands for Uninterrupted Power Supply. Power outages and sudden electrical surges just happen in an instant . Before you know it, your expensive PC is all fried up, or the document you were typing is long gone never to be unrecovered again.

But even UPS devices are inefficient too! That’s why Tripp-Lite Eco series is designed to be eco-friendly – especially nowadays where going green is a key issue. The eco UPS can detect unused devices such as printer, monitor and other things connected and cut off the power supply on that socket, thus saving you money! The ECO350 UPS model also has a telephone/DSL connection. Aside from that, this UPS has a rating of 99% efficiency that only consumes 2 watts of electricity when idle.

Of course, you could also use the surge protector sockets for your other precious devices that do not require battery support like your plasma TV or your sound system.

The ECO350 model will cost you $49.99. In the long run, the device will pay for itself plus the peace of mind that you can save your data whenever there is a sudden blackout.
