Abstract: The coffee mug or drink container has an internal multi-cup compartment. A thermally insulated container (liquid containment store) has a lid with drink spout(s) (if the drink container is not a bottle). The special container has an internal dry store for two or more cups placed in a storage compartment beneath the bottom of the container. Identically shaped cups nest together (stacked) in the dry store on a nested cup support with a complementary surface to limit vertical and horizontal jostling and cup damage. Sometimes the cups are frusto-conically shaped or are matching convex/concaved shaped. An added secondary storage container is included for coffee or drink additives.

Abstract: An efficient, low-noise power generation system may comprise a power generation trailer including a cooling subsystem. The cooling subsystem may include a plurality of cooling fans and a polygonal structure having an open top. The polygonal structure may comprise a plurality of vertical radiator cores arranged so as to form a polygon in which the plurality of radiator cores define side walls. The cooling fans may be mounted within the polygonal structure. The cooling subsystem may include a cooling fan motor for each fan and a cooling fan controller that controls operation of each cooling fan motor in response to at least one measured parameter, which may be the temperature of a fluid flowing through one or more radiator cores. At least one fan is oriented so as to push air out of the top of the polygonal structure. The polygonal structure may have four sides.
