There's no need for batteries or an AC outlet with the upcoming desktop clock from Bedol – the self-proclaimed "invention company" – as it runs solely on water power.
Available on August 15, the Bedol Water-Powered Clock combines a stylishly modern circular design with eco-friendly technology, as a dash of salt in the water is all that's required to power the digital time-keeping device. How does it work? A converter extracts electrons from the water molecules to provide an electrical current, which acts as a fuel cell to generate power.
Inventor Mark Bedol, founder of Bedol International Group, Inc., has more than 30 design patents and 15 utility patents under his belt. The company also distributes other innovative products ranging from wireless computer speakers to retro radios to funky-looking Internet phones.
Available in blue or green, the Bedol Water-Powered Clock is the first in the company’s "Green" line of products. You can pick it up for $16 starting on August 15 at the company store, located at 456 W. First St. in Claremont, California, or online.

Bedol's on-line catalogue is very much a work in progress. There are a lot of categories, but most have not been populated with products yet, or the photo might not have any description attached. Best to wait a bit and call back.

This is A a knock off and B it is more 20 years old.
The clock doesnt even feature an alarm function !
I have seen a similar design out in the far east that is cheaper and has an alarm function , called the aqua power clock.
Another wannabe is my verdict...

Green and clean power
----------------------Water Power Battery
The new water power battery source is the latest in ecological and environmental products design, incorporating the revolutionary and patented Water powered battery, together with conventional digital technology, the water power products offer the user an environmental design solution for a product that is used in every day home or office life . all this has been made possible by groundbreaking developments in portable power technology operated by an inexhaustible resource “water”
The patented technology utilizes two electrodes consisting of specially formulated alloys .one positive ,and the other negative
When immersed in an electrochemical reaction takes place resulting in the production of electrical energy
To maintain a constant supply of energy simply refill as the water evaporates, aproximately every 2 to 3 months, the water battery has a minimum continuous life of at least 1.5-2 years. In addition to this, the water battery (unlike all other conventional batteries) can be stored in its dry state indefinitely and can be left to dry out at any time during its life, this way water power battery’s life is extended indefinitely.
As all the components of the water battery are recyclable, the benefits over traditional batteries are countless.
Every year billion of conventional dry cell batteries are used ,and the recycling of such waste is not only expensive but often incomplete, resulting in hazardous pollution and damage to our environment
The water power products are designed and manufactured to be used for both professional and home applyances.
By just adding you are providing your product with and endless source of energy.
At the end of the water battery’s life (indicated by dimming of the display)simply replace the battery and start all over again
(Replacement water powered batteries are readily available)
Take calculator or example ,our water power calculator can be used in all light conditions, no more fading displays at that critical moment.
The water power batteries are easy to refill and can provide constant power for up to 3 months with just a few drops of water.

We will love to see some of your products in country because our country is made up some many products but I think your water powered clock will move better thank. Benjamin from Nigeria.
