Yeti Rambler Jugs keep your favorite beverages hot or cold for hours

Need to keep your favorite beverages hot or cold for extended periods of time while in the outdoors? Yeti, the same company that convinced us that buying

a

$400 cooler

 is completely acceptable, has announced two new additions to its ever-expanding line of products designed to keep us well hydrated on our adventures.

For spring 2017, the

Rambler

line of cups, bottles, and growlers adds the new Yeti Rambler Jugs, significantly increasing the amount of liquid we can take with us when we hit the road.

As usual with any product from Yeti, the new Rambler Jugs are over-engineered to survive just about anything short of a nuclear blast. Built from very durable kitchen-grade stainless steel, these containers are both puncture- and rust-resistant, shrugging off wear and tear with ease. But perhaps even more importantly, the jugs have also been designed to resist collecting odor, ensuring you won’t open the lid to discover a foul scent has taken up permanent residence inside.

Like all of the other products in the Rambler line, these containers feature double-walled vacuum insulation in the body. But these vessels also come with a specially designed lid that boasts an inch of insulation as well. This helps to maintain a constant temperature — whether hot or cold — for the beverages stored inside even hours after you’ve left home.

That same lid also includes Yeti’s new MagCap design, which utilizes a very strong magnet to hold the jug’s cap in place as you pour yourself a drink. The Yeti Rambler Jugs also come with an oversized handle that makes them much easier to carry from the car to the campsite, while an extra-wide mouth simplifies filling or emptying the container as well.

The new Rambler Jugs are expected to start shipping in April, with two models available. The half-gallon edition will sell for $100, while the one-gallon jug will carry a price tag of $150. Yeti also plans to sell a specially built mount for these containers that will allow owners to fasten them directly to a truck, ATV, boat, or other vehicle. Made from tough polypropylene, those mounts will retail for $40.

Juiced Bikes sold at auction for $1.2 million, report says
The Juiced Bikes Scorpion X2 adds more power, upgraded tires, and an improved battery to the popular moped style e-bike.

Juiced Bikes, the San Diego-based maker of e-bikes, has been sold on an auction website for $1,225,000, according to a report from Electrek.Digital Trends recently reported how the company was showing signs of being on the brink of bankruptcy. The company and its executives had remained silent, while customer inquiries went unanswered and its website showed all products were out of stock. In addition, there were numerous reports of layoffs at the company.Yet, the most convincing sign was that the company’s assets appeared as listed for sale on an auction website used by companies that go out of business.Now, it appears that Juiced Bikes’ assets, including a dozen patents, multiple URLs, and the company’s inventory in both the U.S. and China, have been sold at auction, according to the report. It is likely that the buyer, who remains unknown, can capitalize on the brand and the overall value of the 15-year old company. Founded in 2009 by Tora Harris, a U.S. high-jump Olympian, Juiced Bikes was one of the early pioneers of the direct-to-consumer e-bike brands in the U.S. market.
The company had quickly built a reputation for the versatility of its e-bikes and the durability of their batteries. Over the years, the popularity of models such as the CrossCurrent, HyperScrambler, and RipCurrent only bolstered the brand’s status.Last year, Digital Trends named the Juiced Bikes Scorpion X2 as the best moped-style e-bike for 2023, citing its versatility, rich feature set, and performance.Juiced Bikes’ getting sold quickly might be a sign of what consulting firm Houlihan Lokey says is a recovery in the North American e-bike market.
The industry has had a roller-coaster ride during and after the COVID-19 pandemic: A huge spike in demand for e-bikes had combined with disrupted supply chains to create a supply/demand mismatch of “historic proportions," Houlihan Lokey said.

Aventon Abound SR combines thoughtful design, enhanced security, and smart connectivity

Electric bikes are nothing new at this point, and while there are many styles, few purportedly do-it-all, and even fewer actually offer smart or more advanced features. They tend to do one thing particularly well, like cruising, carrying cargo, or sightseeing -- like city riding -- but the biggest way they push the envelope is by offering that long-range electric power. The Aventon Abound SR, a new do-it-all bike, goes far and beyond anything that's come before it.

For starters, it's the first bike equipped with Aventon's electronic control unit (ACU) which empowers intelligent safety features. That gives you 4G and GPS tracking built-in, plus remote locking, an alarm system, and much more. But also, this top-of-its-class bike is incredibly versatile and is suitable for everything from commutes to tough exercise rides and daily routines. It features a top speed of 20 miles per hour, has a range of up to 60 miles per charge, and can carry a payload of up to 440 pounds. Impressive, indeed. Let's take a closer look and get a little more friendly with it, shall we?
