Why you should buy the Ember Smart Mug 2

The Ember Smart Mug 2 is a brilliant way to allow yourself to slowly sip and savor your morning beverage rather than drinking it in a mad dash to preserve warmth. By using a fine-tuned, app controlled temperature adjustment, you can set the temperature that the warming base of the Ember Smart Mug 2 targets. Anywhere from 120 to 145-degrees Fahrenheit will do. When it detects your drink getting cooler than the desired temperatures, it fires up the heat and brings the world back into balance. In a weird sort of way, it is reminiscent of a smart thermostat that is specific for your drink.

Of course, the Ember Smart Mug 2 is more than just a cup and an app. It’s part of our smart home Prime Day deals collection, after all, its got electric parts. So, if you have a Ember Smart Mug 2 you’ll have to plug in your cup like you do your phone? No, not at all. The Ember Smart Mug 2 has an hour and a half of battery charge in its “body” and refills via a wireless charger every time you put it on its charging coaster, which itself can be plugged in to a charger. Oh, and what about washing? The Ember Smart Mug 2 is IPX7 rated, which means you could theoretically submerge it up to a meter deep in the water if you’d like. Much like the more adventurous items in our best Prime Day smartwatch deals, it’ll take a quick rinse in the sink like a champ.

So grab an Ember Smart Mug 2 while it is on this annual best-of deal. As part of Prime Day deals, it is only $100, down $50 from its usual price. Again, this is the best price we’ve seen on the Ember Smart Mug 2 all year, so get it now while you can!
