TOTO’s proprietary EcoPower
technology harnesses the kinetic energy of running water to power this
high-efficiency faucet—eliminating routine battery replacement (and hazardous
battery disposal) and the need for hard wiring (with its attendant labor and
monthly electrical costs). The faucet uses 0.8 gallons per 60-second cycle, but
because the average-use cycle is less than 60 seconds, the estimated water
discharge is closer to 0.08 gallons per user.
