VORTEXèr Lid

∗ NEW VERSION – Updated firmware (v3) – July 2026 ∗

• Three intensity cycles named after the movement of water in Nature:
  • Gentle Brook: ~3 minutes at a slow pace.
  • Flowing Stream: ~5 minutes at a medium pace.
  • Rushing Creek: ~8 minutes at a fast pace.
• Cycle durations reflect the same natural phi (golden ratio) proportion that governs the jug’s geometry.
• Each cycle ends with a gradual ramp-down:
  • Prevents cavitation.
  • Allows the vortex to dissolve naturally.
  • Preserves the structures formed during the cycle.
• Battery management
  • Non-blocking battery charge feedback.
  • Stall recovery ensures smooth motor operation.
  • Hysteresis-controlled charging optimizes fast and slow charging modes to extend battery cycle life.

The Fundamentals

• • Top lid with robust motor, rechargable lithium-ion battery (USB-C).
  • Adaptive motor measures the water’s own resistance and adjusts rotation in real time.
  • Air inlet draws oxygen into the water as it spirals, like a mountain stream capturing oxygen as it flows.
