A simple way to make the Life Filter more useful around camp
Pure Clear says:
The Life Filter® Pouches have been designed to give the user of the Life Filter® the ability to carry water away from the water source. 2 Water Pouches per order. These water carry pouches have many uses and can be used to filter dirty water from 1 pouch to clean water filtered into the other. A common use is to fill the pouches at the water source and attached them to the Life Filter® when required, for drinking direct through the Life Filter® or used for clean cooking water. They are light weight, small and fold down and can be held in place with the mini carabiner. The 3 layered material means it is strong and durable and boasts a heavy duty seem seal, enabling the pouch to be squeezed under pressure pushing water through the Life Filter® at a fast rate without rupturing. Weighing in at only 26grams these pouches are a fantastic light weigh alternative to carrying heavy water bottles.
Our Verdict
The Pure Clear Life Filter Pouches each hold 480ml and weigh 24g, giving you one pouch for collecting untreated water and another for clean water after filtering.
I like that setup because it means you are not limited to drinking directly through the filter. You can collect water, carry it back to camp and filter it when needed for drinking or cooking. I would personally mark one pouch as dirty and one as clean, as they are otherwise identical.
The 480ml capacity is on the small side, and I personally prefer a wider opening than a standard 28mm mouth when collecting water, particularly from shallow sources.
The reinforced three-layer construction is designed to cope with repeated squeezing through the Life Filter, which is exactly what you want from a pouch like this.
