DORmino mouse gets juice from laptop's heat

dormino1_69.jpg

Laptop thigh burn is a common ailment, and there is a definitely a market for designing devices to reduce the heat emitted by computers. However, this invention makes the most of a necessary evil by using the heat to power a wireless mouse.

Instead of having to use a recharging dock, you could just place your DORmino mouse on the mousepad; this extends from under the computer, channelling the power of the heat into the mouse. Sounds a bit like a prototype, I know, and, well... it is, but the design has been submitted for the Greener Gadgets Design Competition 2008; if it wins, surely its chances of being made go up?

Hi there - it seems that your blog template is broken - no content is appearing on article pages for me (I've tried accessing a couple of articles over the past few days).

I've been having the same problem!! I thought it was my computer. I'm glad I'm not alone though, I haven't been able to read anything for days.
