The LEXO travel mug was initially released last year and became so popular that ThermAvant had trouble keeping it in stock. This year, the company — founded by University of Missouri C.W. LaPierre Professor of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Bill Ma — has made the popular mug even better.
The LEXO absorbs the extra heat of a beverage, cooling it to the ideal drinking temperature within minutes. It then releases that heat back into the coffee as it begins to cool, extending the optimal temperature for much longer than a standard vacuum-sealed travel mug. The LEXO is able to do all this without the need for complex electronics or batteries.
The original LEXO keeps beverages at the optimal drinking temperature for up to 8 hours. The new 16-ounce mug can keep hot beverages warm for upwards of 12 hours and absorbs the heat to bring your beverage to a drinkable temperature much quicker thanks to a few enhancements made by Ma and his team at their headquarters here in Columbia.
The new mugs are available now, just in time for the holiday shopping season. Online shoppers can use the code “MIZZOU17” to receive a special discount on the new mugs when ordering from Amazon or LexoLife.com.
