My main tip, though: do not waste your time/money/coffee on anything less than the 14 ounce, the 10 ounce is just TOO little.
Pro tip for my ember fam, buy a small pack of rubber coated baby spoons to stir your coffee.
Never use a regular spoon as it will chip the coating.

Couldn't have said it better myself, got one gifted and it just works.
Downsides: Battery life is 80% and the app does not play well with new android phones.
The 80% is less than idea but my use case will have it sitting on it's charger 90% of the time anyway so it's not going to effect me. I resolved the app issue by using my old phone to install the app. I was able to update the firmware with no issues on my old phone. I will also not be using the app with any regularity. I set my temp to 'coffee' which I think was 134 degrees and it's about perfect for me.
One other thing I noticed with this mug is that when I pour milk into my coffee or tea, it goes right to the bottom. Most of my other coffee mugs will 'mix' when I pour in the milk. I have to actually stir my drink in this mug since it has no lid to slosh it around to mix.
I got busy with a project this morning and didn't touch my morning tea for almost 2 hours and it was still the perfect temp. Absolutely worth the reduced price IMO.
Also after about 2-3 years having issues with the metal contacts at the bottom starting to wear off making it hard to charge. Have to put it on the dock just right.
Ember does sell official lids, $15 on amazon if anyone is interested.
Eh not bad for $35. I'll keep it.

I was testing an Ember 16-Oz Smart Tumbler Mug that i got today and it took about 45m to an hour at least to get it up to 145F. I thought it would be more like an electric tea kettle and be more immediate heat.
I guess I'll use an electric kettle anyway to heat the water quick for tea (some teas require higher temps than 145F to steep in), then pour into the Travel Mug to maintain the lower 145F temp after 15min when it cools down (then put the lid on and take it on the go if needed).
