The temperature indicator shows the degree of cooling or heating of the contents of the thermos in real time. It can be represented by a display, thermometer or other sensor to visually display temperature. Thus, there are thermoses in which the temperature indicator is a chameleon coating that changes color depending on the temperature. Thermoses with an indicator are especially convenient for long trips, hikes and travel. Temperature control allows you to correctly plan the time of eating/drinking and organize timely replacement of the contents of the thermos.
The special
handle for convenience of carrying of a thermos. The design of such a handle can be different: for example, in ordinary thermoses and thermo mugs (see "Type") it is usually installed on the side, in food thermoses and jugs — from above (and is made collapsible). The handle can be a structural element of both the thermos itself and its cover (see below). In addition, the small carrying strap that some models are equipped with is also considered a handle in this case (but the shoulder strap does not count, see below).
Anyway, holding a thermos by the handle is usually more convenient and safer than by the smooth body, especially when it comes to a large-capacity model.
