Spaceballs The Coffee Maker

I shrunk down a vending machine-sized coffee dispenser to the size of a regular coffee maker, all so geeks could drink coffee in style. It features an LCD screen that shows the brewing in progress, as well as the time and date.

A Coffee Mug That Looks Like A Coffee Pot

Here is a simple novelty idea: a coffee mug that looks like a miniature coffee pot. Inspired by those many times where I’m tempted to drink directly from the pot (co-workers be damned) during those moments of weakness. But mostly I just like the idea of carrying around a small coffee pot to flaunt my caffeine addiction.

I’ve looked high and low for something like this. If I missed it please leave a note in the comments, because I really wouldn’t mind owning a few.

June 12th 2019 UPDATE: Looks like one was released on Amazon, sometime in 2018?

Duracell Thermos

Duracell Battery coppertop thermos coffee 2012 dave delisle davesgeekyideas dave's geeky ideas

I post lots of ideas, but once in a while I am shocked – shocked – that a particular item doesn’t already exist. Case in point: this thermos/beverage container fashioned after a Duracell coppertop. Considering our dependency on coffee as a source of energy, it makes perfect sense. It also helps that the design of the battery closely resembles your typical thermos.

The protruding contact on the top of the cup is spring-loaded, allowing the cup to sit flat on surfaces.
