THE UNPLUGGED ONE

Nothing to plug in, and nothing to pay to run it.

The Office Walker draws 0 watts. There is no motor in it, so there is no cable, no remote and no standby light, and nothing to pay to run it for as long as you own it. Your legs move the belt, which is the only power a walk ever needed.

0W

A motor is a bill and a failure point.

Every electric walking pad is a electricity bill quietly turning and a part quietly wearing. office walker has neither, because there is nothing in it to power and nothing in it to burn out.

The belt moves because your feet move. That is the whole mechanism, and it is why using it costs you exactly nothing for as long as you own it.

What a motor costs to run

Set the hours, the motor size and your tariff. The Office Walker line stays at zero, because there is nothing to power.

Over ten years that is €1,643 against zero. Cost is power in kilowatts times hours times 365 times your tariff. The Office Walker has no motor, so it draws nothing.

Put it anywhere. It never needs a socket.

The middle of a room, a rented flat where every outlet is already taken, a corner nowhere near a wall. It does not care. And there is no cable lying across the floor for you to catch a foot on.

How much does it cost to run a walking pad?

For the Office Walker the answer is nothing, every hour, for as long as you own it, because there is no motor to draw power. For a motorised pad it comes down to two things: your electricity tariff and the hours you actually walk. That is why the calculator above asks you for both, rather than us publishing one figure that would be wrong for most people.

Whatever it comes to, it lands on top of what you already paid for the pad, for the privilege of a hum you never wanted. This draws nothing, because there is nothing to draw for. It is the rare upgrade that also removes a bill.

The only energy it uses is the energy you meant to spend.

The only energy it uses is the energy you meant to spend.

Taking the motor out fixed the noise and the running cost in one go.

The motor is why an under desk treadmill hums, and it is the only part in there drawing power. Removing it was one decision that answered both.

What is left needs no socket, so it can sit in the middle of a room or in a flat where every outlet is already spoken for. Nothing to trip over, and nothing sitting on standby.

What that does to the noise

Get your name down for one.

Backers get theirs first. After that the waitlist orders, below the price the store will charge once it opens to everyone. Tens of thousands of people are already on it, so it is worth putting your name down now.
