Eco Clock is a brilliant way to make sure we extract every bit of juice from a discarded AA battery. There are 12 slots on the face of the clock to host the used batteries and collectively they power the device. The design also includes a really fun feature where the different levels of juice in each battery are represented by color. Totally cool and something we really want to see in the market, the Eco Clock well deserves the Liteon Award that it won this year.

Hi Bor-ru!
Great product idea, I see a lot of potential for it. I can’t seem to find any other way to contact you so I thought I’d drop a comment here in case you checked.
I’d like to get in touch with you with a proposal for the eco-clock. If you’re interested please contact me at sathviks(at)gmail.com
Idea is very good
One of the best ideas. Congratulations.
I LOVE the concept of reusing and that the batteries replace the numbers but the brand label on the batteries wouldnt look so aestheticly pure.
Hey this is really amazing!
How can I buy this?
Does anyone know how?
