BUILT FOR PARTY CHAOS.
The Chug Coaster combines premium durability with precision tech—built to survive the party and deliver official results.
Party-Foul-Proof Design.
Durable Shell:
Manufactured with a coated polycarbonate shell, one of the toughest, longest-lasting plastics, makes the Chug Coaster ready for party reality (drop, scratch, chug slam, and crack-resistant). Combined with its quick-charging USB-C port and programmed inactivity timer shut-off protocol, your coaster will last until sunrise.
LED-Illuminated, Camera-Ready.
Combined with the infrared proximity sensor, the Chug Coaster has bright, visible LED cues that enhance the user experience—proof you can see—especially in any dark, late-night party setting. This, combined with its sleek design, make for quick clips, hype moments, and the perfect camera-ready chug.
Spillage? No Problem.
Spill resistant: the Chug Coaster's watertight enclosure and sealed button protect the internal circuit against any liquid—whether beer or water. Spills happen, and your coaster is protected.
Pro-Trash-Talk Tech.
Unmatched Accuracy: Infrared proximity sensor checks cup position up to 880 times per second (1.135 ms), resulting in precise timing results, down to a hundredth of a second. Further, a premium battery gives the Chug Coaster over 4 hours of non-stop, LED-blazing run-time.
Built for Any Beverage
The Chug Coaster’s adaptable design and size let it work seamlessly with almost any beverage. Whether it’s a classic can of Coca-Cola or a pint of your favorite beer, the Chug Coaster and the Chug Champ Leaderboard (21+ and NA) have you covered.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the Chug Coaster?
The Chug Coaster is an infrared sensor-driven, LED-illuminated drink coaster that precisely times your chug down to the hundredth of a second. It uses an infrared proximity sensor (over 880 scans/sec) to detect when your drink is lifted and set down — no stopwatch, no arguments.
Why Kickstarter instead of just selling it now?
Kickstarter lets us build the Chug Champ community together from day one. Your backing helps finalize production, fuels leaderboard development, and unlocks stretch goals (future color way votes, KS-backer-only tournaments, and more). In return, you get the lowest price, earliest shipping, and exclusive perks that won't be available after the campaign.
When will I receive my Chug Coaster?
Estimated shipping begins the first week of May for Early Bird tiers. Standard tiers ship shortly after. We'll keep all backers updated on production progress throughout the campaign.
What if I'm not satisfied?
We stand behind the Chug Coaster. If you receive a defective unit, we'll replace it. Kickstarter backers also get direct access to our support team for any issues.
Is the Chug Coaster only for beer?
Not at all. The Chug Coaster works with any beverage — beer, water, soda, energy drinks, you name it. The leaderboard has both 21+ and NA categories so everyone can compete.
How durable is it really?
Very. The Chug Coaster features a coated polycarbonate shell (one of the toughest plastics available), a sealed watertight enclosure and button. It's built to survive drops, slams, spills, and party chaos. USB-C rechargeable with 4+ hours of non-stop-running battery life.
