Of course, these should not be too much in view of the frequency with which the household uses tap water. For another example, H2O, the hydroelectric radio (H2O Powerradio) invented by Tango Group/E Group, has a super mini-size hydroelectric generator built in the radio and can be connected to the water outlet of shower, so that when bathing begins, water flow can flow through the radio to drive the generator to generate electricity, and the radio can work. And moreover, the situation that once the faucet Radio is turned off, the Radio is dumb is not worried about, a rechargeable battery is also arranged in the H2O Power Radio, and redundant electric Power can be stored, so that the Radio can be received and heard when bath liquid is smeared.
