Geberit’s mini power station

The small generator that makes the touchless taps independent from the mains power supply or battery power is a true engineering feat. Whenever the tap is in use, the flowing water charges the accumulator via a hydroelectric turbine that produces electricity. The electricity is then loaded an accumulator that makes sure that the tap is operational at any time.
