Abstract: An apparatus that monitors the consumption of a beverage containing vessel, while the vessel is contained in a pack, bag, or pocket. The method for monitoring includes a sensor that collects data on the beverage within the vessel, the data may be broadcast to other devices where the data is turned to information and it is displayed. The apparatus may consist of a battery, battery circuit, sensor circuit, temporary storage, sensor, and antenna. Information created may include a warning of when the vessel will be empty relative to the activity of the user.

Abstract: A moisture removal apparatus configured for partial insertion into a primary opening of a moisture containing container is provided. The moisture removal apparatus includes a first end portion positioned within a moisture containing portion of the moisture containing container. The first end portion has a first material layer configured to absorb moisture from the moisture containing container. The first material layer is further configured to transport the absorbed moisture to a second material layer. A second end portion is spaced apart from the first end portion and extends beyond the moisture containing container. The second end portion is configured to receive absorbed moisture from the second material layer and is further configured for direct air contact for purposes of evaporation of the absorbed moisture.

Abstract: A moisture removing apparatus and method for making the moisture removing apparatus. A first material layer may be placed proximate to a second material layer. The first material layer may be wrapped around the second material layer to cover the second material layer with the first material layer. One or more edges of the first material layer may be secured to hold the second material layer within the first material layer. The apparatus, when placed in a container, may be configured to absorb moisture from the container, and may be further configured to use capillary action to remove the absorbed moisture from the container.
