apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Installing underwater lights if you pool has too few or none can be a tedious and expensive project. The pool has to be drained (where does all that water go?) and there will be concrete and tile torn up and put back together again.

Circumventing the whole installation thing is Lysandre Follet’s Ecolights which pop right into your water jets to use the pre-existing flow from the filter pump to drive a small turbine and a set of LEDs. That's right, these babies won't need to be connected to any source of power—which means they don't need to be wired up and you save money.

We love it when green living takes on two meanings. We love saving Mother Earth, but sometimes it's our wallets that need our help, too.
