So what's the deal with these? Between the reviews for the single or the three pack it sounds like people love it or hate it. With that said I have two questions. Does it leak if not overfilled and tightened properly? Does it really keep the liquid hot for atleast 3 hours? I want to be able to throw this in my pack and not worry about a spill, so I'm looking for an answer from someone who has been using this on the mountain or in the backcountry.

Thanks Angus, that's just the answer I was looking for.

I've been using it a fair bit on the mountain, and I've loved it. A fairly typical experience is to pour teat at around 7 am, leave it sealed (never had a problem with leaking) in my inside jacket pocket and take it out on the lift (maybe 5 times in a day, it doesn't hold much), and it stays hot enough to have to sip until easily 3 or 4 in the afternoon. It would probably cool off faster in a backpack than in a jacket, but if it's packed in it'll still be relatively well insulated. Honestly, I would count on it staying warm for 3 hours even if you filled it with boiling water and left sealed outside in the snow.
