Vector Cupholder is Awesome For Cafe Crawlers
Lately I haven't been working in cafes as much, but when I do, I notice a few things have changed. There are now smaller tables, less power outlets, slower (but free) wifi, limited parking just about everywhere.
There are ways to alleviate some of those problems, but none really worked well for the smaller tables and my need to use a 15" Apple MacBook Pro
So, enter the Vector Cupholder
It travels flat, and rotates to hold a multitude of cup and mug sizes. Most importantly, it holds your cup securely so that I can't accidently spill a cup of joe all over my stuff. I got it on kickstarter, but you can now order it on Amazon below.
I've so far used it around the house and outdoors in the patio. Unfortunately it doesn't fit my current desk simply because the table top is too thick for the clamp. I'll report back as I use it further.
Just a quick update. The cupholder is working as intended. While I wish it were adjustable at various angles for use in other scenarios, it continues to hold my cup of coffee in cafes just fine.
One issue I came across though is that the rubber piece that is used to grip the table had started to come loose - probably due to the summer heat. I'd recommend using a strong contact cement to secure the rubber piece. Even if lost though, I'm confident I could find a suitable enough replacement to glue on.
