Travel Brita 1 Pint Review

Travel Brita 1 Pint
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I travel several times a year and this great idea works very well at the airports. Once you get through security...the x-ray security techs do look at the Travel Brita as some kind of security issue, but after you explain to them what it is, they are fine with it. After all the hoopla, you are ready to fill your Travel Brita at any water fountain or even in the bathroom sink. Once filtered, you can pour the filtered water into your own empty water bottle and save up to $4 a bottle for drinkable great tasting water. It is a minor inconvenience but well worth it when you consider the price of bottled water in the kiosks and restarants!I also used the Travel Brita at the hotel.The tap water was awful, like the airport water. I recommend changing the filter after 3 weeks of airport/hotel use. It seems the filter does break down at some point there after and the metal and awful taste returns after being filtered with the old filter.

Emergency Fire Starter Review

Emergency Fire Starter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I received this today, and it works great. I would suggest using the back (non-serrated) edge of the steel to shave the magnesium and the serrated edge for striking the flint. The magnesium block and flint both have some kind of coating, so the first time you use it it'll take a few extra tries. I've seen these selling for double or triple the price and people were happy to pay it, so this is an excellent deal!

Sawyer SP194 Complete 4 Liter Water Purifier System with .02 Micron Removal Rate Review

I almost bought the platypus but being it doesn't filter viruses, I fortunately found the Sawyer .02 filter. Lifetime filter guaranteed (million gallon). Fill and hang, gravity does all the work. However Moontrail sells this for $163.00 so get it from them. This compacts well and is light!

Product Description:
System Includes: 1-4 Liter Nylon Dirty Water Dispenser, 1-4 Liter Nylon Clean Water Storage Vessel withHigh Flow Dispensing Cap, 1-0.02 Micron Absolute Inline Water Purifier, 1-Faucet Adapter, 1-Drink Tube, Cleaning and Maintenance Instructions We didn't actually run a million gallons through the filter because that'sa lot of water. But we could have. All of the Sawyer water filters and purifiers come with a MILLION GALLONGUARANTEE! Don't believe us Well it's true. It is what makes the Sawyer water filters and purifiers the best onthe market. They can be backwashed. So let's say that you take your filter on a 3 month trip with you. So don't letclean water be an issue any longer; buy a Sawyer Water Filter or Purifier. Backwashing is not required often unlessyou are filtering very turbid water. Backwashing is as simple as reversing the filter flow with clean water. Forcingthe clean water back through the filter flushes out all of the contaminants and only takes a few seconds. If you areaccustomed to a ceramic filter, the cleaning ratio is approximately 20:1. In other words, by the 20th time you wouldhave cleaned a ceramic filter, it would be time to backwash this filter for the first time. NO REPLACEMENT FILTERSOR CARTRIDGES ARE NECESSARY. We trust you will thoroughly enjoy the ease and extra protection this provennext generation technology offers you. No Pumping, No Chemicals, No Waiting and No Worries.

Sawyer SP121 Just Drink Inline Water Filter Review

Sawyer SP121 Just Drink Inline Water Filter
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Okay. This thing is plain awesome!
Filter rate is okay, medium drip rate but better than most mini pump filters.

What makes this really cool is the size and versatility.
The same filter can be hooked up multiple ways.
Put a straw on both ends and drink from a stream.
Connect it mid-line to a Camelback or between two bags and have a gravity filter.
(Make the top bag a Shower bag and have a huge filter that can provide water for the whole camp.)
Use the 'flush' adapter to purify water directly from the tap when traveling overseas!
Drill a hole in a 5 gal bucket (Sawyer sells the Kit) and make a bucket/ gravity filter.(Sawyer has a program in Africa using this system providing clean water for whole villages!)
I have a Sawyer Filter with the quick releases and swap it back and forth between 3 backpacks, faucet filter my (creek pumped) water, as an emergency filter using the bucket system. In my ultra-light day pack I have a small platypus bag with the Sawyer inline filtering, and some emergency supplies.On day hikes I just stop and fill from whatever creek or puddle and keep moving.

ONE filter for day hikes, long hikes, thru hikes, group expedition and disaster/ earthquakes...
