This filter works FAST! Its size and weight make it very convenient to carry and use.
With filtered water being this easy I will never carry water again if I can filter it and drink it COLD from the stream!!

My god I love this pump. It blazed through six liters and I only got one mosquito bite! That's fast in MT. We have used it several times and we love the lightweight and compactness. I hooked it straight into my Camelback w/o taking off my pack. Sweet!
