Self Stirring Coffee Mug

We need more innovation and design for ordinary tools and accessories.  Otherwise, we haven’t made much progress from the days of the caveman.  The device shown is a battery operated self-stirring coffee mug.  It spins at 3,000 rpms, which is faster than you… so it probably works. 

“A favorite gift among our customers, this mug has a miniature battery-operated propeller at the bottom of the well that spins at 3,000 rpms at the touch of a button on the handle, automatically stirring your beverage and eliminating the need to dispose of stirrers or find a place to leave coffee-dampened spoons. At your command the propeller re-stirs mugs of hot chocolate, coffee, or tea, preventing chocolate or sugar from settling out of solution, and overcoming the traditional challenge of adequately mixing honey in a hot drink. The mug includes a lid to keep contents from spilling and to retain heat, and the lid can be placed underneath the mugs base as an impromptu coaster. The mug is lightweight injection-molded plastic sheathed in a stainless steel exterior. Requires two AA batteries. Set of two. (9 oz.)” - Hammacher Schlemmer
