A device (much like some fogless mirrors) that sits between your shower head and the wall that contains a small turbine which then powers a radio so that you can listen to tunes in the shower without dealing with batteries.

Cool idea. Additional feature suggestion: a light, for those times when the power is out and you need to take a shower. |

I personally don't want one since I don't listen to music in the shower, but it's just gimmicky enough to be appealing.

I like this. I prefer a bath to a shower, can you put this radio under the running tap. ssshhh don't tell that chap who did the wind-up radios, he will be making these by next xmas. |

Don't think so, this is low voltage stuff we're talking about. (WTAGIPBAN) |

Forget the on and off switch too.... water on music starts, water off music stops, tune it the same way you ajust the massage level of the shower head. |

Why not place the whole radio inside the shower head? Have the controls for the radio situated around the holes in the shower head. I only suggest this because I have a shower radio (although not powered by water) and it always slides down the neck of the shower head. |

I remember Rods powering a segway that way, way long time back. You asked for it, RT. |

Would like this to also have an alarm clock on it. Thought that by now it would have been baked but looking for one this morning only brought up semi-water powered clocks that I hesitate to use in the bathroom, or clock radios that requires gobs of batteries. Need to cut down on the children's shower times. |

If it's an electric shower, move the master switch (the one in the ceiling with a pull cord) to outside the bathroom. Switch off when you decide they've had enough. |

As an alternative to a turbine to power the radio, perhaps you could use a thermopile. |

Of course, this wouldn't work in a cold shower, but if you need a cold shower, you don't deserve music. |
