Second-stage Cyst Filter traps protozoa in a web of glass-fiber
Third-stage EPA registered ViruStat Microbial Cartridge disinfects the water from bacteria and viruses with iodinated resin
Fits neatly in a bicycle's water bottle cage or the pocket of your pack; spout snaps shut for dripless transportation
The 26 oz. bottle holds 20 fl. oz. of water after the displacement of filter cartridge

Comments about Katadyn Exstream Purifier Water Bottle:

I bought this purifier about 7 years ago for a week long kayak trip down the Scioto River in Ohio. When arriving in Ohio, one person said "you'll get deathly ill drinking that water." Another told me "you don't want to drink Ohio rivers, they burn."

The river was the only water I had access to. So, for a week, I plunged the open bottle into the river, replaced the cartridge and cover and drank.

Let me tell you, during that week I could've sworn that I was drinking store bought bottled water.

By the end of the week I was just starting to taste the water. The cartridge will last more than a week under normal conditions, but if you now what rivers in Ohio are like, you'll now why this only lasted a week. For those that don't know, the only way to describe Ohio rivers, is to say, just look at a cardboard box.

I am still using my original bottle and have replaced the cartridge 3 or 4 times now.
