It just doesn't get any easier! The SteriPEN™ Journey water purifier system takes the guesswork out of the water treatment so you can enjoy clean, purified water while on the go.

  • System includes the SteriPEN Journey purifier, FitsAll water bottle prefilter, 1-liter BPA-free wide-mouth water bottle, SteriPEN carrying case and instruction manuals
  • Journey requires no pumping, chemicals, test strips, extended time-keeping or filters; leaves no aftertaste, will not clog and does not require lubrication
  • Innovative SteriPEN system uses UV light rays instead of chemicals to purify water for drinking
  • Ultraviolet (UV-C) light rays safely sterilize clear water by destroying 99.99% of protozoa (including giardia and cryptosporidia), bacteria and even viruses
  • SteriPEN protects you from risks that cause botulism, cholera, dysentery and typhoid, just to name a few
  • But if clear water is not available, no worries—the included cone-shaped prefilter clears particulates and debris from water
  • FitsAll prefilter fits the included Nalgene BPA-free water bottle as well as nearly any other size bottle; pour source water through filter, and clean water enters bottle
  • SteriPEN Journey is simple to use: Just press a button and gently agitate the water with a quick stir
  • Easy-to-read LCD screen tracks the progress of the treatment, counting down the seconds and displaying a happy face when successfully completed
  • Purifies 16 fl. oz. of water (cold or warm) in less than a minute, or 32 fl. oz. in a minute and a half
  • LCD screen indicates the volume of water selected, battery power, number of lamp uses and failure alerts
  • Small size fits most containers—use it in cups, mugs, water bottles and canteens; carries easily in a shirt pocket
  • SteriPEN Journey turns itself off once ultraviolet treatment is complete; light source can be used 10,000 times!
  • Watertight seals keep water away from the electronics; rubberized coating ensures secure handling in wet conditions
  • Low-power indicator lets you know when batteries need replacing; twist-off cap permits easy battery access
  • Long used by municipal water districts and bottling companies, low-level UV-C light treats water safely, and unit's light will not damage eyes or skin
  • SteriPEN Journey includes 2 nonrechargeable lithium CR123A batteries
  • Use only on clear water, as cloudy, sediment-laden water hinders effectiveness

SteriPEN water purifiers meet U.S. Environmental Protection Agency standards for microbiological water purifiers and have been independently tested by the Oregon Health Sciences University and the universities of Arizona and Maine. For complete test results visit www.steripen.com.

On occasion, SteriPEN users have reported issues when using their device in water with a very low electrical conductivity, such as water from melted snow or ice. Since late 2008, all SteriPEN models have had their water sensors enhanced by doubling the sensor electrode voltage, thereby increasing electrical current flow in water with low conductivity to allow proper function in snowmelt and even mineral-free distilled water.
