I ordered a glass 500 ml beaker. I'm just wanting to be sure that if I set it on a coffee cup warmer with liquid in it, it will be ok. The warmer is about 150 degrees. Thanks.

It's essentially Pyrex, so it should be fine. Folks put Pyrex glass containers to cook in their ovens, so you're perfectly fine with just a warmer.
At that Temperature, you Shouldn't have any Problems.
Just about all decent Lab Glassware is "Double Annealed".

You can get it much warmer and it'll be fine. My french press 'beaker' is boro and I pour boiling water into it.
ps- a little trivia if you care. Pyrex is a brand name. They do make borosilicate tubing and rod but all US made Pyrex cookware has been tempered soda lime for decades. That's why you hear of it exploding sometimes.
