CheckTap helps Monitor Power Use

The CheckTap is smart power strip that aims to help you lower your power consumption by displaying a virtual tree that grows based on the amount of carbon dioxide you DON'T dump into the environment. Talk about a paradigm shift eh? The CheckTap doesn't break down your power usage into actual figures, preferring a more abstract method but I think this works for some people as well. Would be nice if it included the capabilities found on the EcoStrip.

of course, even a rudimentary knowledge of biology would point up the fact that real trees actually grow BETTER with more CO2 in the air, ironically.
