HourGlass Charger
By overcharging cellphones keeping pluging after proper charging time,
huge energy and money is wasted.
This home appliance has glasshour-shaped metaphor and use recycled copper powder instead of sand.
While 1 hour, copper powder fall to bottom in keeping with energy conduction.
After 1 hour, electric cannot be conducted since all copper powder fell.
