Takeya’s new premium insulated water bottles keep drinks ice cold for 24 hours

By Garrett Hulfish Published July 21, 2017

During the hot summer months, nothing cools things down like ice-cold water. However, from the fridge to the car, to work, and to the gym, typical containers have a hard time keeping water from heating up. Takeya, known for its water bottles and tumblers, has announced a collection of premium insulated water bottles to keep water cold no matter how active the lifestyle.

This new Actives Collection focuses on sports, fitness, and wellness. Its biggest innovation is in its leak-proof, sweat-proof, and insulated lid. Without the lid, users can easily add ice to any beverage. When screwed back on, the smaller spout makes sipping, chugging, or pouring easier. For easy carrying, the lid also features a loop handle.

Other benefits beyond the lid provide further insulation and durability. The bottle itself has a vacuum-insulated design to enable drinks to remain ice cold for up to 24 hours or steaming hot for 12. The double wall prevents condensation, ensuring the bottle is always easy to grasp. Adding to the grip is a double powder coating. This also gives the bottles some added durability. Taking things a step further, Takeya has also added a silicone bumper to the base to minimize dents and scratches from setting the drink down.

Water bottles aren’t the only thing getting improvements. The tumblers within the Actives Collection use a patent pending Flip Lid to prevent spills. Whether the tumbler is dropped, tossed, or shaken, they won’t waste anything.

“At Takeya we love to be active, we love to sweat, and we revel in feeling strong and healthy,” says John Lown, president and CEO of Takeya USA. “We also know how important hydration is to the process, and found that the industry was missing functional, insulated water bottle solutions for fitness enthusiasts like us.”

The Takeya Actives Collection is available now on Amazon or from Takeya’s official website. The collection includes bottles from 18 to 40 ounces and tumblers at 20 and 30 ounces. Pricing depends on size and ranges from $30 to $40. Both bottles and tumblers are available in a variety of colors including black, white, slate, red, midnight, fuchsia, violet, sapphire, teal, lime, and yellow.

Juiced Bikes sold at auction for $1.2 million, report says

The Juiced Bikes Scorpion X2 adds more power, upgraded tires, and an improved battery to the popular moped style e-bike.

Juiced Bikes, the San Diego-based maker of e-bikes, has been sold on an auction website for $1,225,000, according to a report from Electrek.Digital Trends recently reported how the company was showing signs of being on the brink of bankruptcy. The company and its executives had remained silent, while customer inquiries went unanswered and its website showed all products were out of stock. In addition, there were numerous reports of layoffs at the company.Yet, the most convincing sign was that the company’s assets appeared as listed for sale on an auction website used by companies that go out of business.Now, it appears that Juiced Bikes’ assets, including a dozen patents, multiple URLs, and the company’s inventory in both the U.S. and China, have been sold at auction, according to the report. It is likely that the buyer, who remains unknown, can capitalize on the brand and the overall value of the 15-year old company. Founded in 2009 by Tora Harris, a U.S. high-jump Olympian, Juiced Bikes was one of the early pioneers of the direct-to-consumer e-bike brands in the U.S. market.
The company had quickly built a reputation for the versatility of its e-bikes and the durability of their batteries. Over the years, the popularity of models such as the CrossCurrent, HyperScrambler, and RipCurrent only bolstered the brand’s status.Last year, Digital Trends named the Juiced Bikes Scorpion X2 as the best moped-style e-bike for 2023, citing its versatility, rich feature set, and performance.Juiced Bikes’ getting sold quickly might be a sign of what consulting firm Houlihan Lokey says is a recovery in the North American e-bike market.
The industry has had a roller-coaster ride during and after the COVID-19 pandemic: A huge spike in demand for e-bikes had combined with disrupted supply chains to create a supply/demand mismatch of “historic proportions," Houlihan Lokey said.

Aventon Abound SR combines thoughtful design, enhanced security, and smart connectivity

Electric bikes are nothing new at this point, and while there are many styles, few purportedly do-it-all, and even fewer actually offer smart or more advanced features. They tend to do one thing particularly well, like cruising, carrying cargo, or sightseeing -- like city riding -- but the biggest way they push the envelope is by offering that long-range electric power. The Aventon Abound SR, a new do-it-all bike, goes far and beyond anything that's come before it.

For starters, it's the first bike equipped with Aventon's electronic control unit (ACU) which empowers intelligent safety features. That gives you 4G and GPS tracking built-in, plus remote locking, an alarm system, and much more. But also, this top-of-its-class bike is incredibly versatile and is suitable for everything from commutes to tough exercise rides and daily routines. It features a top speed of 20 miles per hour, has a range of up to 60 miles per charge, and can carry a payload of up to 440 pounds. Impressive, indeed. Let's take a closer look and get a little more friendly with it, shall we?
