InGenious Heated Travel Mug

Product Information

You’ll also get notifications once the mug has reached your desired temperature and when it needs to be charged. It held coffee at a nice, hot temperature for most of its three-hour claimed battery life, and it only fell slightly below the target temperature of 135˚F in the last 15 minutes.

Using the mug independently will limit you from customizing specific features from the Ember mobile app such as adding a name or assigning presets to different drinks.There’s no way to customize the temperature (it’s designed to stay at 130 degrees), and it will only work if it’s sitting on the charging coaster while the coaster is actually plugged in.

I feel like with articles like this, the natural reaction is to bristle at the recommendations and make a comment like, “I’d never pay X amount of money for that.With its curvy pear-shape, the Kopi mug has a more design-y and attractive look than the Ember and comes in pretty shades like “fresh mint” and “cupcake pink” that’ll certainly brighten up your desktop. It also featured three different temperature settings, functioned well both off and on its charger, and was cool to the touch when on. I’m not totally convinced that the battery won’t just fail after a few more uses (especially based on the reviews I read), but I couldn’t get it to that point during testing, so I can’t say for certain if the battery issues were due to poor craftsmanship or simply using the mug incorrectly. A tall, slim travel tumbler with a slide-open lid, Burnout looks unassuming from the outside but promises to pack a lot of technology inside.
