Driving and trying to find the opening in your water bottle so you can take a sip is challenging. We’re not sure how many others do this, but we use our tongue to feel around for the slot. It’s ridiculous. Lyd is a clever water bottle that senses when your lips make contact. Yes, it sounds like sorcery, but Lyd will only allow for the flow of water—or whatever beverage you store inside—when you place your mouth on it. Not in one particular spot, either; Lyd offers 360-degree access, so you no longer have to do recon with your tongue. Better yet, because of the technology, Lyd won’t spill when you place it in your bag since it won’t open without your lips on it. Available in two sizes—13 oz and 17 oz—Lyd vacuum insulated to keep hot drinks hot and cold drinks cold for hours. You can back Lyd on Kickstarter.
