A lightweight water filter and soft flask
Lifesystems says:
The Lifesystems Water Filter Purifier Soft Flask provides fast, reliable water purification in a lightweight, packable format. Disruptor® electro-adsorptive technology removes waterborne viruses, bacteria and protozoa while filtering particulates, chemicals and heavy metals, with fast-flow performance that purifies water as you drink. Available in 500ml and 1000ml sizes, the 500ml flask fits running vests for trail running, while the flexible design packs down small when empty. It can also be used to decant purified water into another container, and each replaceable filter treats up to 250 litres.
Our Verdict
The Water Filter & Purifier Soft Flask combines a 500ml soft flask with a filter that removes viruses, bacteria, and protozoa. At 83g, it removes viruses, and its lightweight soft-flask design really makes this filter stand out.
The flexible flask works well for drinking directly or squeezing filtered water into another container, and the cartridge also reduces particulates, selected chemicals and heavy metals.
Sadly, the main limitation is the filter itself. Each cartridge is rated to 250 litres and must be replaced within three months of first use, while the filter cannot be backwashed if flow starts to drop.
