We all know the problems with water purification for travelling or camping. Bulky pumps, funny tasting tablets, it’s all work, work, work. Now there’s the AquaSafeStraw.
You use it like a normal drinking straw, as the water is sucked up through the membrane in the middle of the straw, only particles smaller than 0.2 �m are able to pass. This strains out all the nasties and leaves you with hopefully ok-tasting drinking water.
The straw just needs a quick shake after use and with periodic cleaning the straw is good for 500 litres of filtered water. Even 3 year olds can use it apparently. Not recommended for use with thickshakes or extra muddy-mochaccinos. $US34.95 + shipping.
AquaSafeStraw is a high tech, tested and approved water purification system that removes 99.9999% of waterborne bacteria including Pseudomonas, Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus, and Fecal Coliforms, plus parasitic contamination by Cryptosporidium, and Giardia.
