Sounds like a crazy idea but it’s true, and probably a genius invention at that. My father was a truck driver before he passed away. I know those guys work long hours and have a hard time keeping going. What would be better then being able to have a nice wake up call anytime you needed it without having to make a pit stop somewhere. Or even just for the family driving to go on vacation where the driver needs something to help them keep focused. Not only does it make coffee though they are able to make tea by placing the tea bags in them and letting the water run through just as if it were making coffee. Just plug it into the 12v outlet and let it go. There are several different styles to meet many coffee on the go needs.

The First example here is a smaller 12 volt 5 cup coffee maker. It’s handy since it comes with the thermo-glass and stay cool handle but more impressively is the reusable basket type filter and the hot plate to keep your coffee or tea warm. Plus it’s less then 20 bucks which defiantly will save rather than spending $1.50 for a cup of coffee at gas stations.

The Second example makes a whopping 12 cups. This ones a little more expensive at just over 30 bucks but the features defiantly make up for it. Besides the hot plate and other features of the first, this also has a nice design that allows it to stay secure while moving so it won’t spill all over. Also you don’t have to wait for it to make the whole pot as it has a feature where it pauses so you can pour a cup.

I have been using a regular 110V house coffee maker in my truck with a 600 watt power inverter for years. Ever since I found out about 12 volt coffee pots I have wondered how they stack up. My wife bought one for me for my birthday this year and I really like it. For some reason I just didn’t think that it would perform as well as it does. It’s just me in the cab most times so she got me the small 5 cup quick brew model and it really is great. I have hot coffee whenever I want it and it doesn’t take much time to brew or much power to operate.
