A heavy stainless steel coffee mug shaped like a V8 engine, with silver pistons, connecting rods and pulleys, a 400 ml stainless steel inner cup and a piston-style lid. Made by TECHING, the brand behind the TECHING V8 engine model kit.
New: Get it as a set with a coffee cup Stirling engine that runs on your hot coffee. Choose Mug + Coffee Cup Stirling Engine above.
Search "V8 engine mug" and most of what you'll find are light resin cups painted to look like metal. Here's the difference you can feel the moment you pick it up.
Your drink only touches the food-grade stainless steel inner cup. At 400 ml (13.5 oz) it holds a full mug of coffee, tea, beer, soda or water, hot or cold.
When you're done, put the piston-style lid back on. With its ring grooves and "TECHING V8 POWER SINCE 1914" on top, it turns the mug into a small V8 for your desk or shelf.
Look closer and you'll find pistons and connecting rods on both banks, a crankshaft pulley, red timing pulleys and a V8 badge on a finned red body.
Choose Mug + Coffee Cup Stirling Engine and get a low temperature Stirling engine with your DM940. Take the lid off, set the Stirling on top of your hot coffee, and it runs on nothing but the heat from your cup. Two engines on one mug: a V8 you can hold, and one that actually runs.
Pass down the love of engines. Give the flywheel a gentle push and watch the kids' eyes light up the way yours did the first time you heard a V8 fire up. No fuel, no batteries, just a cup of hot coffee or water.
Grown-ups handle the hot drinks; little hands can help start the flywheel. About the low temperature Stirling engine: starts at a temperature difference of about 20°C (68°F), 250 g, 10 x 10 x 12 cm.
1914 is the year the V8 engine first went into mass production, and car culture was never the same. Over the next hundred years, the V8 became the heart of muscle cars, hot rods, pickup trucks and race cars, and its deep rumble became a sound every car lover knows.
The DM940 is TECHING's tribute to that classic. Every morning coffee is a small salute to more than a century of V8 power.
For car enthusiasts, mechanics, TECHING model owners, and the dads and grandpas who'd love to share it with the kids. Boxed and ready to wrap for Christmas, Father's Day, birthdays or retirement. More ideas: engine gifts for him.
Care: Hand wash the mug and lid with warm water and a soft sponge to keep the finish looking new. It's metal, so please don't put it in the microwave.
