![]() We don't imagine anyone will want to lose that mug, so the integration with a tracking system makes sense. The mug is planned to have the same price tag as its predecessor, the Ember Travel Mug 2, which is around $200. The intent being that certain medications, or even critical organ transplants, must be kept at specific temperatures during transport. Today, it not only provides personal liquid heating devices, it also provides cooling solutions with a focus on the medical field. Photo Ember Travel Mug 2 in front of Coffee BeansĮmber's first smart mug managed to surpass its funding goal on IndieGoGo way back in 2016, by raising more than $360,000 total, with the funding goal being reached in November of 2015 at $278,124. During its CES announcement this year, the company announced that in addition to the precise temperature controls Ember mugs already support, this particular device also has an integration with Apple's "Find My" device functionality. Thanks to Ember's new Travel Mug 2+, you may never (permanently) lose your favorite travel mug again. How many people have had that almost exact story? Every one of us may have done something similar at least once. Oops, you left it, or dropped it, or placed it on the top of your car and drove away! Ember's latest Travel Mug looks to, at the very least, prevent that loss from being permanent. You reach for your fresh coffee and the mug is not there. You've double checked your pockets, you sit down in the car and drive off. You stop at a convenience store, fill up your favorite mug, maybe chat up the convenience store clerk a little and head back to your car. I love it as a gift, but would I buy my own? ehhhhhhhhhhhh, probably not.You are taking your kids on a spring break road trip, you decided to drive through the night because at least it's quiet, but you're out of coffee. And idk if this is just me, but if I brew my coffee into a vacuum insulated mug, it's not a drinkable temperature for hours, it's TOO good with keeping it hot.Īll in all, I'd say it's a pretty niche product because like you said, you could just get a good vacuum insulated mug to keep things hot which is good for people on the go (which I think most usually are) instead of an added $80 mug to your collection. ![]() I just like it because there's something about drinking your morning coffee out of a mug instead of a travel tumbler that gives me peace. Also, if you're using it on your desk at work like I am, you can definitely just leave it on the charger. Just got my ember as a gift and yep, battery life is about an hour or so, though it should be noted that the capacity is small (6 oz or so?) and it rarely takes me longer than an hour to drink it.
