Water filtration on a whole new level!!

seems like it could be "easy" to get unfiltered/dirty water contamination into the filtered compartment.....at least it isn't clear how you guarantee that you don't get incidental dirty water in the clean stage

There's got to be an o-ring or some sort of a seal in order to force the water into the main cylinder and not out the sides hence why it looks like it takes some effort to compress the two parts. That said, if the outside of the cup is wet, unless you dry it out, you could be getting a drip or two of contaminated water. How much bacteria does one need to consume to cause a health risk?
 
This looks cool and handy for when your out in the bush. I might have to pick one up and since I fill and sell 18.9L/5Gal jugs at work I could at lest find out the total dissolved solids of the filtered water from different sources( swamp water, cleanish lake water..etc) and maybe even get some samples properly tested.


I see you sell replacement filters and purifiers, which would it come with? And would the purifier also double as a filter?
 
I noticed a few people click through our website recently and I thought I would log in and answer any questions anyone has.

Here are some videos for you to check out:

Do you have lab data from a test by an independent company as to how many bacteria the filter leaves out at the end of stated useful life?

It's my undestanding that once an electroadsorption filter is saturated, the bacteria simply flow through and effectiveness drops.

Thanks

Showed up as the first link against the Post #24's second video.

I note that they didn't use the foam pre-filter, so maybe they botched other instructions too.

Very cool. Would still need some kind of treatment for stagnant water though as this does nothing to viruses.

The Purifier does viruses at 99.999 percent

Nope, very hard to do actually with this system. It's possible to have some contaminated water on the outside of the lower bottle however a wipe off would prevent anything from getting close to the drinking hole


Is the outermost cup suitable for boiling water in?

It has plastic on the bottom of the steel so I wouldn't advise it.
 
Got one on the way just waiting for Canada Post to deliver it...... Looking forward to using it.
Quick customer service and great communcations.
 
Just starting to get a chance to play with the one I got and love it.

Going to get some pics up soon.
 
Any one got pics of yourself using them?

I've been trying to get some but haven't had the chance yet.
