If you feel that your 20 inch LCD Monitor is just taking too much power, well the EcoView Monitor might be the answer if you’re searching for more eco-friendly monitors. The EcoView Monitor has motion detectors which can sense if you’re in front of the screen or if you’re away. If you leave your front monitor for around 40 seconds, it goes into sleep mode but automatically resumes when you come back. The EcoView Monitors also has TCO Displays 5.0 Certification and EPEAT Gold Certification.

Other energy saving features include an ambient light sensor that adjusts the monitor’s brightness according to the brightness of the room, an Auto EcoView which uses 42 percent less power and a zero watt power consumption when the monitor is turned off.

If you’re thinking about lighting up your house number as your next Do-it-yourself project, then don’t stress yourself with all those wiring, not to mention the extra power that your house number light would consume. Just do it the easy and eco-friendly way with the solar powered House number light.

Of course, the solar power house number light doesn’t really scream style and looks more like a hospital exit sign but I’m sure some vinyl wrappers would probably oomph the wow factor of this gadget. The Solar powered house number only costs $35.37 at Amazon.
