Time Your Power !

Apparently the reason why I ruined my camera battery in a short period of time was because I over charged it every time I plugged it on.
I used to leave it charging for almost a day or because of my forgetfulness.
This is why I resonate with designs like the Dialug that integrate a timer into the socket.
So for gadgets that need 2-3 hours of charging, the timer automatically turns off the power supply once the time is up.
As the designers explains, “Turn it counter-clockwise to power sign to set for regular use and clockwise to set timer for gadgets that need only limited time of power.”
Dialug is a 2011 iF concept design entry.
