Day 2 of the ‘12 Days of Geek-mas’

On the second day of Geek-mas, my true love gave to me ....

iGo Green Laptop Charger
Buy at: http://www.igo.com/ (or click here)
Price: $100

Show those energy vampires – chargers that suck your electricity and hard-earned dollars – the door!

This environmentally friendly alternative uses 85% less standby power (which is what the leeches suck out when they’re plugged in and you’re *not* charging anything). The device is made specifically for laptops (we’re told it works with most popular models) but the included USB can hook up cell phones, bluetooths, mp3 players, etc.

From a Byte-Sized standpoint, we recognize this is pricey, but the charger will pay for itself – and fast. It’s a great gift for the green member of your social network/family to help them lessen the guilt they feel for leaving the house humming.

I personally have two BlackBerry chargers, three Zune chargers, two laptop chargers and three DVRs/LCD TVs plugged in at all times. Hint hint, honey.

.... and a Tauntaun Sleeping Bag!
