The Spin-X Spin Dryer
This is a great green gadget that will not only cut down on your energy consumption, but also cut your drying time by 50%.
The Spin-X Spin Dryer works using centrifugal force and minimum energy to suck up to a quart of water out of your laundry, thus making your conventional dryer time, or line drying time significantly less.
By greatly reducing drying time, the clothes dryer only operates for 1/2 the time or less, creating less heat for the Air Conditioner to cool, and extending the life of both the clothes dryer and the Air Conditioner because of less wear & tear.
In addition to pulling more water out of your clothing before heading into the dryer, it also removes detergents, perfumes, and chemicals out of your clothes . Which for people with sensitive skin would be quite helpful since this would result in less skin irritation.
This would be an excellent companion to my previous post for the Wonderwash. This product will pretty much pay for itself within the first year.

What a great addition to the “hand crank” washer: http://www.coolgreengadgets.com/2007/12/15/wash-your-laundry-with-a-hand-crank-with-the-wonderwash/
Between the two of these, you could save lots of $ on water and electricity!
Namaste,

I’ve had one of these for years and I’d like to add a few points.
1. It’s a dude in Texas making them. It’s good to support small business. Just darned good.
2. Your dryer works less and lasts longer (saves $$ saves the earth)
3. Your whites will be whiter than anyone else in town. Sometimes it’s fun to be smug.
Now if you’ll excuse me I’ve got to go drive around town in my car, just for fun ya know. (remove tongue from cheek now)

Hey, Black & Decker also has two new energy saving gadgets: SmartScan and Power Monitor.
The SmartScan is a portable automotive diagnostic tool that tells you what is wrong with your car when your check engine light comes on.
The Power Monitor tells a homeowner, in real-time, how much electricity they use, in dollars and cents, and can help a consumer save up to 20% on their monthly electric bills.
Email me if you’d like to find out more and maybe test either of these products.
Best,
