Description

A Time Magazine Invention of the Year winner, the LifeStraw Personal Water Filter contains no chemicals, no batteries and no moving parts to wear out. It features a high flow rate and weighs only 2oz. The ultimate survival tool for hiking, camping, ultralight backpacking, hunting, travel, scouting, and emergency preparedness, its straw design is ideal for purifying water from streams, lakes, ponds and other contaminated sources. No disaster kit or bugout bag is complete without a LifeStraw, an essential component of any prepper gear lineup. Unlike many similar filters on the market today, LifeStraw has met EPA standards for water filtration in independent testing and removes a minimum 99.9999% of waterborne bacteria (>LOG 6 reduction) and 99.9% of waterborne protozoan parasites (>LOG 3 reduction), filtering to an amazing 0.2 microns and surpassing EPA standards for water filters. LifeStraw has been used around the world under extreme conditions for humanitarian relief, providing clean drinking water in developing communities. The LifeStraw Personal water filtration straw measures 9 x 1 x 1 inches and weighs 0.1 pounds; includes sealed bag for storage in backpack or survival kit. For each LifeStraw purchased, one child in a developing community receives safe drinking water for an entire school year

  • Must have for Hiking/ camping/ hunting
Color: Green Style: 1 Pack
The media could not be loaded. I bought this LifeStraw for our emergency kit and camping trips, and it gives such peace of mind. It’s lightweight, easy to pack, and simple to use—just pop it into any water source and drink. The water comes out tasting clean with no weird aftertaste. I haven’t had to use it in a true emergency yet, but I tested it on a hike at a creek, and it worked perfectly. Definitely a must-have for anyone who spends time outdoors or wants to be prepared at home. ... show more

These arrived no problem. They're reasonably price and worth having. I have these for my disaster bag. Not sure what else I can provide.

  • Good product to keep in my camper supplies
Color: Green Style: 1 Pack
I don't plan to drink muddy water just because this will filter it (look at the ad photos), but it's always good to have with you when you're gallivanting through the wilderness. Always carry water with you but keep this in your backpack just in case you find yourself stuck or lost in the wilderness. It's affordable, and definitely worth your life. ... show more

  • Field Tested and approved!
Color: Green Style: 1 Pack
So I watched an episode Alone and realized that I might need this when I head out West on a September hunt. I only intended to use it as a last resort. Problem is….my son watches Alone with me and after seeing it on the kitchen table as he was headed to cut grass he decided to take it and drink creek water instead of packing water with him. Of course I didn’t know until after the day had came to an end and I got home and he told me how great it worked. Well….he didn’t get sick or die so I reckon this things works pretty good. Haha ... show more
