Product Information

Embracing The Call Of The Wild Grill: Tips And Techniques On How To Barbecue In Nature’s Playground If you’re looking for an ultralight gravity filter setup, and especially a better squeeze bag for your Sawyer water filter, I highly recommend the CNOC Vecto and VectoX. The designers put a ton of careful thought into the design, which means I don’t have to put much thought into filtering my drinking water at the end of a long day on the trail. Please note: TPU is a porous material and so is not completely smell free after production, please clean and air prior to use. Colour

CNOC Vecto 2L Soft Water Container Review - SectionHiker

Hard to fill.Pretty similar to Sawyer Squeeze, the bottle does not expand when underwater, so there’s not a lot of water going in when you push the bag underwater. Unless you can always find some source of water pouring downwards, you’ll freeze your hands like I did many times using it. Now I know some people in forums say, that if you treat the bags well, they’ll hold. And that may be true. But these small accidents will happen and it can potentially end the whole trip. That’s not something I am willing to accept. The main risks of the bags popping The Narrow Mouth Tritan is a classic Nalgene Triton bottle but with a narrow mouth to help prevent spills when your drinking on the go. This sustain version uses 50% recycled materials for a more sustainable approach.The classic large opening on the wide mouth bottles easily accommodates ice cubes, fits most water purifiers and filters and makes hand-washing a breeze. This sustain version uses 50% recycled materials for a more sustainable approach. Sure! I know hydration reservoirs aren’t fashionable for ultralight but I just don’t drink enough unless I have ease of access. I go through a lot of water, and I’ve had giardia before so don’t skimp on treatment (I sometimes use chlorox tabs then filter and even in our roof-fed huts, I at the least filter the water).

A cord attachment. It allows you to tie it up in a rolled position and keep it tight in your storage. The UltraFlask 500ml is a compact, lightweight and BPA free water bottle with a soft bite valve. Ideal for trail running but versatile enough for a range of sports. Secure cap attached to the bag.I love the small bit that holds the cap attached to the bag. I do have a habit of losing small pieces like caps from my bottles. The classic large opening on the wide-mouth bottles easily accommodates ice cubes, fits most water purifiers and filters and makes hand-washing a breeze. This updated version uses 50% recycled materials for a more sustainable approach.In all honesty, I do think there might be a lot more options that may be even better than the three I’ve listed. I just haven’t tried them all yet. If you want to experiment yourself, just look for any bags or bottles that fit on a 28 mm cap thread, which is a standard thread size for a regular soda or water bottle you can get in any shop. Attaches to filters with a 28 mm thread, such as the Sawyer Squeeze, Mini, or Micro, the LifeStraw Flex, and the HydroBlu Versa Flow I don’t use it this way, but you can also use a second Vecto as a clean water bag. This setup would imitate a Platypus GravityWorks filter, great for sharing a water filter among a group or filtering lots of water for use around camp. CNOC also offers an interesting collapsible bottle called the Vesica that’s worth a look for this purpose. Design for Filtering Water

CNOC Vecto Long-Term Review (Better Alternative to Sawyer CNOC Vecto Long-Term Review (Better Alternative to Sawyer

The Life Venture Tritan is a robust, lightweight and impact-resistant drinking bottle which makes retaining liquids on the move easy and enjoyable. I looked into those CNOC water bags and didn’t love the common complaints about the threaded male portion of the bags being to flexible so as to possibly get bent out of shape when mating with a Squeeze. I think CNOC may be trying to fix this, but I heard it was an issue. TORQ are experts in hydration, use these drink sachets and cool bottle to rehydrate in the most effective way.I quite like having only one entry point in my water bags and I want that point to be decently sized. The 42mm openings of the Hydrapak Seeker bags fit the bill. It’s just much easier for me to hold the bag up by the mouth, pour dirty water in with my scoop. Set the scoop down once it’s full, and with that hand just immediately attach the water filter onto it. Yes, you can just screw the filter over a thin cloth like a bandana, buff, or piece of nylon pantyhose (if you happen to have any of those around). If it’s thin enough, it will fit between the threads. Reply No mention of the taste of the H2O from this bag. I do not want to be out in the wilderness with pristine creeks and have plastic taste from my water. I have found many hydration bladders have this problem. I suggest a test of filling the bag and leaving the water in it for a few hours then see if the taste is affected. Thanks Reply
