We boil too much water for the cups of tea we drink. And as the leading tea-drinkers in the western world, the British are in the right position to figure that out. They have calculated that the collective extra energy used to bring a whole kettle to boil when you only need a cup’s worth of water is enough to power all the streetlights in the UK for an entire night. That’s where the Mito water boiler comes in. The Mito has a long wand that goes into any container and only boils the water inside. It’s still a prototype but we’d support a crowdfunding initiative to kick start production.
