Another innovation is wireless headphones HyperX Cloud Alpha Wirelesswhich lasts up to 300 hours between charges.
The green energy category identify Lithium ion battery, created with silicon powder from Sila Nanotechnologies; and the Graduated heat pumpwhich uses an electric pump for heating and a more environmentally friendly coolant for cooling, reducing carbon emissions by 50 to 80 percent.
Likewise, they have been chosen “LG Tiun”, Indoor gardening device from LG Electronics, V local category. While it is included in the category medical care XK300 Remote monitoring of vital signs, which operates 24 hours a day and was developed by Xandar Kardian
