Bedol Water-Powered Clocks
Desktop clocks that run solely on tap water.
Overview
Our Water Powered Clocks run solely on H20. Fill 'em up with some tap water and they'll instantly turn on. Amazingly, they will operate for months without needing any new water.
Available in two styles (a basic time-keeping clock and an alarm clock with a calendar), Bedol Water Powered Clocks feature a large and vibrant LCD display easily viewable from across the room.
When a water change is required, the Water Powered Clocks will retain your settings for two minutes.
Currently available in two styles in three color combinations.

These cool clocks run solely on water. No batteries!
These Water Powered Alarm Clocks are standard desk clocks with one cool distinction: they run solely on water. No batteries are required!
Add water to the reservoir and the clock is immediately ready to be set. The large and vibrant LCD screen is easy to read from afar.
The environmental benefits of the Water Powered Clock are fairly obvious (less battery waste). But, what really sold us is how cool they look, their ease of use, and how long they can operate on a single fill-up of water.
Step #1: Add water. There is no step #2.
To power up your clock, unscrew the base (for the Drop style clock) or remove the spill-proof cap (for the Round style clock) and fill with tap water. Bam! You're done. The display will immediately turn on and you're ready to set your clock. Pretty awesome!
Simple to operate
Our Water Powered Clocks are straightforward to use. For the round style (pictured below-left), there are only three distinct buttons: HR, MIN, and SET. The drop style (pictured below-right) has only two unique buttons: MODE and SET.
Each clock includes detailed and easy-to-follow instructions. You'll be up and running in a matter of minutes.
Runs up to 6 months without requiring a water change
What's great about these Water Powered Clocks is that they run for so long before needing a water change. Their vibrant LCD display is extremely efficient and also serves as your guide for when the water must be changed. When the display begins to fade, you should change the water.
It's not uncommon for the clock to run for several months before requiring a water swap. In some cases, it could run for over a year on a single fill-up! And when the time eventually comes, you don't have to worry about losing your settings. An embedded chip stores the clock's data for two minutes while you change the water.
Spill-proof designs prevent... spills!
The back compartment of each Water Powered Clock contains the "brains" that convert water into electrical fuel. It's kept well-sealed from the LCD display by a spill-proof cap on the Round style and a screw-on base (with o-ring) on the Drop style.
This means that you don't have to worry about spills if you accidentally knock over your clock.
Choose from two styles
Our Water-Powered Clocks are available in two styles: Drop and Round. The main difference (other than shape) between the two is that the Drop style is an alarm clock whereas the Round style is merely a timepiece (powered by water!).
Check out the table below for the nitty gritty differences.

Frequently Asked Questions
Question: How often do I have to replace the water?
Answer: You will have to do this every 5 weeks to 6 months depending on the characteristics of your water supply. If you're keeping your Water Powered Clock on your desk at work, it gives you an excuse to take a quick break. It's also cheaper than batteries. Oh, and did we mention that the clock runs on water? Yeah, that's awesome!
Question: How do I know when to change the water?
Answer: The digital display will begin to fade when it's time to replace the water. It's typical for a batch of water to last 2-3 months and there have been instances of it lasting up to a year (not a typo) depending on the chemical makeup of your water source.
Question: Is there a backlight?
Answer: No.
Question: Will I have to reset the time whenever I change the water?
Answer: No. All Bedol Water-Powered Clocks retains their settings for up to two minutes when there is no water present. This is plenty of time, as it will only take about 15 seconds to replace the water.
Question: This seems familiar. Didn't you once sell a different clock that runs on water?
Answer: Your memory is stellar! Yes, we previously sold a Water-Powered Clock and were saddened when it was discontinued by its manufacturer. When we came across the Bedol Water Powered Clocks, it was like getting a second chance with an old flame. But in this case, the old flame has really been hitting the gym lately. These Water-Powered Clocks are superior in terms of style, LCD clarity, and how long they last before needing to change the water. So, buy, buy, buy!
