‘Tio’ shows he is happy and green when household lights have only been on for a short period of time — but the longer the lights are left on, the angrier and redder he becomes — showing he is truly lighthearted and all business at the same time!

    Very innovative product! Don’t upset the Tio by leaving the lights on… great, fun way to inform children about conserving energy.
