Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.For those who spend too long in the shower, this invention is for you.
As seen in the above video, a shower head can tell you how much water you have used in the hope of saving both energy and money.
A simple change of colour indicates how many litres of water have been used, before a red flashing light tells you when it's time to get out.
On average, 80 litres of water are used per shower. From any smartphone, Hydrao's shower heads can be set to alert you at whatever level of water consumption desired.
While some were keen to know where the device can be bought, others questioned its necessity.
As Shaun Bruneau commented: "People are becoming useless without a device telling them what to do, this is ridiculous".
Set to launch this year, the product had been on show at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas.
