Worked great on the AT!

Used this over the weekend while backpacking the Appalachian Trail. Small, lightweight, and can easily fit in any pocket or pack! These tablets worked great as well. Didn't have to lug a bulky filter with me. Definitely bringing this with me on future hikes!

Took this out on my hike on the Appalachian trail this weekend and it was great! Small, lightweight and can easily fit in any pocket or pack. Super easy to use and way better than hauling a bulky filter around. Will definitely keep using this!

Really good for International travel too

I've bought these from REI before, and somewhere else too I can't remember but I love using these camping because you just don't know the quality of some of those water points, BUT I also love using these when I travel abroad. I didn't have any stomach issues when I was in Indonesia using these, AND I gave my dad a tub of these when he went to India and he was perfectly fine with the water! I've gotten sick before from just using tap water for brushing my teeth etc. so now I either treat all my water or use bottled. These are my favorite treatment tablets, wayyy better than iodine or the chlorine ones that take 4 hours to treat. I didn't see this size in store though might just be online.

Directions unclear

Directions unclear. The directions say to use the dilution chart provided. The dilution chart has two different strengths, listed as "available chlorine mg/L of either 2.6 mg/L or 6.5mg/L" per 397mg tablet. Nothing on the packaging indicates what the available chlorine is, and the two dilutions are extremely different... 1 tablet to 6 quarts vs 16 quarts based on available chlorine.
