The bullet ice maker delivers first ice in as fast as 3 minutes, up to 47 lb of daily ice production, and up to 6 hours of continuous ice-making from a single fill
BELLEVUE, Wash., June 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Smart appliance brand GoveeLife today announced the launch of the GoveeLife Smart Countertop Ice Maker 2 Pro, a bullet ice maker built to help households make ice faster, keep more ice on hand, and reduce hands-on management throughout the day.
Designed for iced coffee, summer gatherings, home bars, and everyday hydration, the Smart Countertop Ice Maker 2 Pro combines fast first ice, high daily output, smart control, and improved ice retention in a countertop design made for regular kitchen use.
For iced coffee at home, the ice maker delivers first ice in as fast as 3 minutes¹, helping users prepare cold drinks without a long wait. Its patented Pre-cooling Management System brings water down to 41°F before each cycle, reducing the thermal gap that slows conventional ice-making and enabling faster first-ice production. Beyond speed, the machine is designed to produce consistent bullet ice across batches. GoveeLife's patented Dynamic Timing Algorithm monitors water and ambient temperature cycle by cycle, adjusting timing in real time to help maintain consistent ice shape, size, and density while reducing thin, cracked, or irregular ice that can melt more quickly. The result is bullet ice that chills coffee quickly and melts gradually, helping preserve the drink's original flavor with less dilution.
For summer gatherings, the Smart Countertop Ice Maker 2 Pro produces up to 47 lb of ice per day², enough for approximately 120 servings of 16 oz iced drinks. Its 1.56-gallon dual-tank system, consisting of a 1.14-gallon side tank and a 0.42-gallon inner tank, supports up to 6 hours of continuous ice-making from a single fill, producing roughly 13 lb of ice to keep drinks stocked. Three ice sizes cover different drink needs, from small ice for espresso and iced coffee to medium ice for daily hydration and large ice for cocktails and slow-sipping drinks.
The Smart Countertop Ice Maker 2 Pro is also designed to reduce friction in daily use. A high-density foam-insulated ice basket helps keep ice ready between uses, with less than 2.2% melt loss in the first hour³, helping reduce the need to start new batches throughout the day. Through the Govee Home App, users can remotely start ice-making, schedule production, run self-cleaning, check real-time status, and view ice production charts, while Amazon Alexa and Google Assistant compatibility enables hands-free voice control.
For long-term kitchen use, the ice maker includes a 3-year warranty, an uncoated stainless steel evaporator, food-grade water- and ice-contact materials, and automated self-cleaning, supporting easier upkeep and more reliable everyday use.
The GoveeLife Smart Countertop Ice Maker 2 Pro will be available on Amazon and the GoveeLife website beginning June 8, 2026, at an MSRP of $349.99, with availability at Walmart and Best Buy to follow. Early buyers can receive a complimentary $99.99 GoveeLife Smart Air Purifier 2, as well as a 5% discount during the first seven days of launch.

The newly granted patents further strengthen an already globally leading portfolio of patents on anode materials for high-energy and fast-charging lithium batteries
DALLAS, June 8, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Solidion Technology Inc. ("Solidion" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: STI), an advanced battery technology solutions provider, today announced the grant of 7 new US patents, bringing the Company's IP portfolio to the total of 130 US patents alone on anode materials for lithium batteries.
Solidion's silicon anode is engineered to (i) deliver a longer uptime for AI data centers on the ground or in the space; (ii) extend the flying range of an unmanned aerial vehicle or drone; (iii) increase the operational time of a humanoid robot on one battery charge; and (iv) drive EV battery technology to a lower cost and provide a higher energy density, significantly extending the EV driving range.
One of the globally leading silicon anode materials is produced from chemical vapor deposition (CVD) of Si in pores of highly porous carbon particles. This technology has several major drawbacks, due to the use of a silane gas-based feedstock, which is known to be scarce in North America, highly explosive, costly and challenging to produce, transport, and store. Additionally, current porous carbon particles are incapable of accepting more than 50% of silane-derived Si in their pores, a feature which significantly compromises the achievable cell energy density.
Solidion's patented Si anode technology overcomes these technical and economical obstacles by using an innovative combination of three strategies:
(1) Higher energy density: well-designed porous graphene balls that can readily accommodate up to 90% Si in the graphene/Si composite;
(2) Lower cost: A low-cost silane-free process that is safer, faster, and lower cost; and
(3) Domestically sourced feedstock (no supply-chain disruption issue): for instance, graphene is produced by Solidion's affiliated company (Global Graphene Group) from biomass, which is abundant in North America.

Headquartered in Dallas, Texas, with pilot production facilities in Dayton, Ohio, Solidion Technology (NASDAQ: STI) is an advanced battery technology solutions provider focused on manufacturing next-generation battery materials and components, and developing high-performance batteries for energy storage, including UPS systems serving the AI data center market, electric vehicles, and aerospace applications. The Company holds a portfolio of over 385 patents, covering innovations such as high-capacity, silane-gas-free and graphene-enabled silicon anodes, biomass-based graphite, and advanced lithium-sulfur and lithium-metal technologies.
