Clearly I love USB powered gadgets you can plug into your Xbox 360 (considering this is my sixth article written on this particular subject). The geek in me finds pleasure in absolutely anything and everything that can be plugged into a 360 and actually function. Right now we are in the season to enjoy personal fans to cool you down on a blazing hot summer day or drink coolers to keep your icy cold beverages nice and frosty during your playing sessions.
Before we know it though the colder months will be upon us and our needs will change. Instead of sipping on cold drinks while we play we will switch over to the warm ones. Do you enjoy a steaming cup of hot chocolate (with Bailey’s if you are like me) while you are fragging your buddies? Do you like a cup of coffee to help you stay up just a little bit longer to finish that next level? Does a nice cup of hot tea calm you down before you hit the sack? If you enjoy your warm beverages while you game, these three USB powered beverage warmers are just the thing for you.

That last option, although a little bit pricier than the other two, is especially cool because it can keep a cold beverage cold or a hot beverage hot. You don’t need two separate gadgets for your drinks, you simply need to flip the switch to chill or warm. All three look like great options though and one of them should fit your needs just fine. A USB powered beverage warmer is handy to have around for when you are gaming or simply surfing on the computer. Get one before those colder months sneak up on you.
ooh now all we need is a usb slurpee machine maker!!
Well with the heat the 360 out puts, you could just place your drink on top. I am sure it would keep the swiss miss nice and toasty.
