Electronic devices have simplified our life. But they use masses of energy that we have lost relation to. We have power outlets everywhere, and we use them, with little awareness about costs.

We have to see the invisible energy to become aware of it, to find the places of most energy consumption.

See Energy is an energy monitoring device. It reads electromagnetic fields in its proximity, and converts the energy value to energy cost.

Although it lacks accuracy – wich could be enhanced with more complex technology – this device could be a way to make people aware of electricity presence and costs.
