apartment therapy changing the world, one room at a time

Pictured first is the Vers 1.5R alarm with with iPod dock & stereo that looks good and sounds great.

Why is Vers green?

• The clock is made from eucalyptus and pine wood from locally sourced and managed plantations near their factory.


• Harvested trees are replanted.


• Vers system replaces 80% of what could have been plastic. Paper used in packaging is 100% post-consumer recycled stock. All plastic packaging have been replaced with post-consumer paper or eliminated altogether.


• The Vers Class D amplifier is more energy efficient and produces less waste. A class D amp is typically 50% to 90% efficiency (vs15% to 40% of class AB).


• The switching-type power adapter draws 30% less power than traditional non-switching adapters and when powered off draws up to 90% less energy.


• Recyclables packaging.

This solar alarm clock is small, compact, and uses a solar module to power a long-life rechargeable battery, which would last one year without a single recharge. Not only is the power supply carefree, but the time is set via radio control so it is always accurate.

As seen here before on Re-Nest, Bedol's alarm clock is powered by water and salt alone. Electrodes "harvest" the energy from the water.The Bedol Wall Wave Clock is available in four different colors: blue, charcoal, green and orange.
