The user-friendly Modlet makes it easy to save energy and monitor your power consumption .
At this year's CES event, sustainability was a strong theme. ThinkEco's Modlet, the modern electric outlet, was one of many sustainably minded products on display. New York-based firm ThinkEco worked together with Spark Design to create an easy to use, eco-update to the wall outlet.
Designed to plug into an existing wall outlet, the Modlet wirelessly monitors and manages the power consumption of any appliance plugged into the device. The Modlet is intended to eliminate vampire energy draw from appliances not currently in use by scheduling outlets to automatically shut off power.
The Modlet brings energy efficiency to the out-dated electrical wall outlet, helping consumers save money and energy.
