Posted in Black & Decker by Conner Flynn on August 1st, 2010

We haven’t seen many green vacuum cleaners, but Black & Decker has something new to offer. They have made their new vacuum cleaner a lot greener. And it comes with everything you need to get your smaller jobs done.

This model is energy efficient and works as a cordless, portable cleaner with 2-speeds, a 10-position pivoting nozzle, 3-stage filtration, the usual brush to clean upholstery, a crevice tool and a wall-mountable charging base.

LG unveils “world’s most energy-efficient monitor”
Here’s some news sure to please you green geeks. LG just announced what they are tauting as the “world’s most energy-efficient monitor,”. Supposedly it beats the pants off of other energy-hog monitors.

The Flatron W2252TE. It would appear that they managed to do this without skimpy too much on specs. You get a 22-inch screen with 1680 x 1050 resolution, 10,000:1 contrast ratio, 2 ms response time, 170 degree viewing angle, and 250cd/m2 brightness rating. All this and a 45% reduction on power consumption compared to other models. Nothing on price yet, but it should be available to green geeks in the UK starting this August.
