Dave's Interesting Things.

[V8Ian]

There're no travel mugs there, are enough of us interested to make it worthwhile?

Me x2. :cool:

[pop058]

If there were stainless or enamel, I would be in for half a dozen ( camper set) . If there are ceramic, I will have two for home

[Kev the Fridgy]

I'd be in for a couple

[Owl]

I'm in.
Like Pop, number depends on suitability for camping or home

[p38arover]

Ceramic mugs with your own pic cost so little to have done at Big W or elsewhere, it would be hardly worthwhile getting Dave involved.

Currently $7

Ahhh.

[Brad110]

If you want Daves photo on the mugs he will have to be involved.:wasntme:

[disco man]

Yep a couple for camping would be good:)

[Bytemrk]

I'd be interested in a couple.

[pop058]

I wasn't thinking of my mug on a mug (or Incs for that matter :D). I thought more a generic AuLRO theme similar to the spare wheel covers maybe ?

[rar110]

Double skin stainless mugs are popping up in various tourist spots with respective tourist icon. The mug is identical. So must be a promotional thing. Could be a AULRO promotional opportunity.

Id get 1 possibly 2. SWMBO is not that fussed on the land rover after seeing the last mechanical bill.

[V8Ian]

Something like this.

[Chops]

Bugger,,, with a heap of them around the camp, how am I going to find mine :eek:

Top idea but,, :cool:

Hi all,

As has been said, those sort of mugs are everywhere.

What I really want is the insulated plastic ones with a wide base so they don't tip over, and a lid so that when they do tip over, they don't spill.

I had a ripper that was made by thermos, but it met an untimely end in a bus door incident. I went to hundreds of shops looking for a replacement to no avail.

Then I got one nearly as good at the servo at Hay. I was ecstatic when I saw them at Goulburn servo. Unfortunately, they are nearly teenagers, and have some cracks, and leak and lose heat. Needless to say, I have cast about looking for more, to no avail.

I know the narrow ones are for car cup holders, but in all my travels, in cars, trucks, buses, boats and planes, I find way more horizontal surfaces than I find cup holders....

that is the problem in a nutshell... some want narrow bottom some want wide bottom...

and some dont want handles...

am going to look into it tho..

[ramblingboy42]

and some don't want plastic....it turns to pox after a few bush trips.....all staino or nogo for me

[VladTepes]

The pictured mugs are designed to fit in a vehicle cup holder and they do. They ate also incredibly unstable in normal use. And being cheap they seem to impart a plasticky taste to the contents. We had a batch made up for LROCB years ago and I'll bet there are still unsold boxes lying around

Best travel mugs I have seen

Thermalmate - Keep It Hot.. Keep It Cold (http://www.thermalmate.com.au)

[digger]

If you are going with that style mug contemplate one of these

it heats on 12v - not necessarily good from cold (unless you have hours!) but I had percolated coffee I bought at Port Augusta still hot (& I mean hot!)
as we got to Melbourne.. thats pretty good I reckon!

But, They usually are on or off, they don't regulate the heat.. I did have one with a digital temp etc setting on it but every time you stop the car it resets.. drove me mad on daily stuff!

[AndyG]

I would have a couple, if a quality product

[Ausfree]

Yeah, I think you have the basis of a good idea, Ian. I would be interested in at least one:D.....definitely not with anyone's face on it though!!!:o

[Pedro_The_Swift]

How about some of these with the logo or even Incs face on it?:angel:

Don't are if it is stainless or plastic. I just want a lid so I don't wear my coffee on a bumpy road. Put me down for two.

[clubagreenie]

If you want something with a wide base look at boating/yachting mugs.
