Lifesystems Waterfilterfles voor op reis en dagelijks gebruik, verwijdert virussen, bacteriën, chemicaliën en microplastics, 1 liter

All as promised

I found this water filter bottle hard to review as i don't live near flowing fresh water, which is its intended use.The bottle comes in a gift box type box and is very well presented. The bottle itself feels very well made and strong. The lid screws on tight and the bottle doesn't leak at all which is good.It has a large filter that attaches to the lid. The filters lifespan depends on the quality of water so the clearer the water the longer its lifespan. It does state that used with the worst contaminated water it should filter 600l so if used on days out in fresh water streams I'm guessing it would last a lot longer. You'll need to change the filter once it's blocked.We plan to take this bottle with us when we go away to south America as we have lots of hiking planned and and could run out of water.

I know the survival niche in the US exists.And, that it’s impressive you can potentially filter any water up to 600 litres before the need to change the filter.Even Brita filters say up to 100L, which I don’t go by, because I have two points I go by, taste & then residue when I boil water. That’s to say, these could go over 600L.The only problem with this? You have no real way to test these 3rd party claims.Unless you had the relevant equipment.At least a microscope. Again, the fact you have to suck it up through the filter, is not good.Instead of the lifestyle video, this product needs a demo, uncut, including seeing the filtered water under a microscope, after it’s extracted with a syringe contraption to get a sample of the water through the filter.Then there’s the £50 price, if it will indeed do 600 litres, it’s not too bad.This could’ve been some type of hardened glass than plastic.This is not an everyday item, but maybe Lifesystems sees it that way?The no demo that this actually works is concerning.The hiker in the video also forgot to take water with them?And dips in a stream instead?You’re going to need a better video demo than that.This is not an everyday product, you need to demonstrate it’s not a gimmick.100% Neutral.May work better in the USA, where there a chance to actually need something like this.Like taking a solo trip and not wanting to carry any water or wet food…but then they’ll need a different filtration system than this too…like a Brita filter mug.As for my use, it’ll be normal, already drinkable, tap water. For which, this is over the top.

This water bottle is a game-changer for anyone who needs access to safe drinking water on the go. The built-in filtration system is impressive, effectively removing viruses, bacteria, protozoa, and even heavy metals, making it perfect for travel, hiking, or emergency use.The 1000ml Tritan bottle feels durable and is BPA-free, which is a plus. It’s easy to clean, and the filter lasts for up to 600 liters, saving money and reducing plastic waste. The built-in filter life indicator is a handy feature, ensuring you know when it’s time for a replacement.Overall, a great investment for clean water anytime, anywhere!

This Lifesystems Filter & Purifier Water Bottle is a.step up from standard bottles, its designed with adventurers, travelers, and outdoor enthusiasts in mind, who need a reliable way to access safe drinking water on the go. It’s effectively a 1000ml bottle that uses advanced filtration technology to purify water as you drink. This sets it apart from basic filters by tackling a wide range of contaminants, including a reported "99.9999% of bacteria (inc E. coli), 99.99% of viruses (like Hepatitis A), and 99.9% of protozoa (like Giardia)". It also reprterly removes particulates, microplastics, chemicals, and heavy metals, while improving taste and odor. These are all pretty hard for me to verfy, but I can say with confidence that it removed the awful chlorine taste we often get in our mains water.The filter cartridge reportedly lasts for about 600 liters, but the inclusion of a built-in indicator to let you know when it’s time to replace it, takes away the guesswork. I've not had to replace the filter yet but it's an easy process, although replacements will not cheap.In terms of design, it’s lightweight, barely heavier than a standard water bottle making it practical for hiking or travel. Importantly, the bottle is made of BPA-free plastic with a leak-proof screw-top lid and a separate cap for the drinking spout, keeping things hygienic. The capacity is generous, reducing the need for frequent refills, and the fast-flow design means you can sip naturally without excessive effort (once the filter fills).Performance wise, this seems to work well, but it has limitations. The guide states that this is for fresh water such as rivers and streams. You can't just go up to a stagnant pool of water and fill up, similarly you have to be aware of potential heavy pollutants like farm effluent areas or nearby carcasses etc. This to me puts it firmly in the avid adventurer realm, you can't just fill up without care.The filtration method used is potentially a step up from traditional carbon filters (again, I have no way to verfy the claims), offering virus protection that many competitors lack, and importantly, I didn't pick up the chemical aftertaste you often get from purification tablets. However, it’s not perfect. The initial cost of £49.99 at the time of ordering, plus replacement cartridges (£24.99 each) adds up, so it’s an investment. If you’re only filtering tap water at home, this will be both expensive and overkill.Overall, the Lifesystems bottle is a quality, user-friendly option for those needing serious purification in the outdoors or while traveling. However, it’s not the cheapest or the toughest, but it does strike a good balance between performance and convenience. If you’re after versatility and peace of mind without the hassle of chemicals or complex setups, it’s worth considering, just be ready to budget for those replacement filters.
