Macy's USB-powered Thermal Travel Mug

  July 18th, 2007



Those who have long commutes to and from work and like their coffee have probably seen the mugs that can keep a drink warm by using your cars cigarette lighter. Now Macy’s is offering a cup that uses the cig lighter, but also gets a little geeky with a USB option as well.

Now once you get to the office you can keep your drink piping hot by simply plugging the mug into your computers USB port. I did find it quite funny that the person who wrote the description of the mug on the Macy’s site hasn’t a touch of geek in them. Evidently you plug the mug into your USB drive to power it according to them. Nothing goes together like hot liquids and sensitive electronics so coffee fans get yours today. At least Macy's mug isn't as prone to spills as the MugMouse.
