I couldn’t help but think about Los Angeles—a water-rationing city that has seen histrionics about water waste rise to a fever pitch—when I saw Tobin Spann’s Intelligent Hose.
The concept water hose is designed to display the amount of water that’s used each time the hose is activated, which will certainly help cut down on water waste. Tobin Spann’s Intelligent Hose would be particularly useful for Los Angeles residents, who must pay a hefty penalty rate (which is almost twice the regular rate) if they use more than the reduced monthly allowance of water.
