I’m all on for doing my bit towards helping the environment and when that help saves me money it’s even more likely I’ll do something about it. The Eco Kettle is one such product, it works by only boiling the amount of water that you actually need thus saving time, energy and your hard earned cash.

The Eco Kettle works by having 2 chambers. You fill the top one as you would with a normal kettle, then you want to boil the kettle you enter how many cups you need (1-8) and it will fill the boiling chamber with that amount of water. It’s another one of those simple but very effective ideas. Here’s an interesting stat about the savings it could make:

“If everyone boiled only the water they needed to make a cup of tea instead of filling the kettle every time, we could save enough electricity to run practically all the street lighting in the U.K.”

The Eco Kettle will be available later this month from Gizoo for £39.95.
