Just placed an order, looking forward to trying it out.

For Their Tomorrow, We Gave Our Today"
Aside from being a 1/5 the price,
how does it compare against

was wondering this too, i was thinking about buying one of those lifesavers but i'm liking this one a bit more just because it's something i could use every day at work but still bring with me when i go camping/hunting etc..

Very cool TKS for posting
Very cool. Would still need some kind of treatment for stagnant water though as this does nothing to viruses. Boil or tablet ( which is ironic because you are removing the chemicals from the water before hand)
The important stat for any water filter is how many microns is the filter size. Don't see that listed?

It doesn't quite work that way, not to mention your numbers and math are slightly off. Not all bacteria are the same size, nor do they react to the media the same. Even if someone invented a device that could filter 100 percent of the known bacteria in the world they lawyers would still say 99.99 percent. If it said 99.98 percent then I would be a little concerned.
What is the pore size (microns) of the G3+ technology?
Pore size is not relevant to G3+ technology; it's like asking how much horsepower a laptop computer has. Pore size is relevant in 'mechanical filters', which work by forcing water through tiny pores in a filter. In a mechanical filter, the biggest pore must be smaller than the smallest germ. The downside of mechanical filters is that tiny pores prevent rapid flow of water, so mechanical filters work slowly or require lots of pressure. Instead, G3+ technology uses electroadsorption; relatively large pores overlaid with a positively-charged mesh (think: little magnets) that latch onto germs. The result is fast-flowing, clean water so you can Drink Freely.
