Looking for the perfect gift this holiday season for your coffee-loving friend or family member? The Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug 2 is the perfect gift, always keeping their favorite cup of Joe hot, no matter what. Right now, you can snap one up at Amazon for just $100.

The Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug 2 looks like a regular mug but that’s actually far from the case. While it has all the convenience of the ergonomic comfort of a regular mug that you might hold, it’s a lot smarter than that. That’s because it’s able to keep your drink heated to your preferred drinking temperature. All you need to do is set the temperature via your smartphone and the Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug 2 keeps everything nice and toasty just how you like it.

The Ember intelligently wakes up as and when it’s needed, i.e. when hot liquid is poured in then it goes back into sleep mode any time it’s not in use. Charging is conducted via a stylish charging coaster allowing it to maintain your desired drinking temperature all day long if you need it to. Removed from the charging coaster and it’ll still keep your drink hot for 1.5 hours giving you plenty of time to savor your favorite drink.

An LED light at the base of the mug lets you know exactly what’s going on, telling you when your beverage is heating up or cooling off. You can even personalize the LED and change it to your favorite color if you want.

IPX7 rated, the Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug 2 is fully submersible up to 1 meter deep so you don’t even have to worry about cleaning it in a special or awkward way. Just hand wash it and you’re good to go for the next drink.

With the Holidays creeping up fast, this is the ideal time to treat your loved one to a hot beverage all year round. The Ember Temperature Control Smart Mug 2 is available now at Amazon for just $100. Buy it for them or maybe simply treat yourself to the new best way to consume hot drinks.
