Review on πŸ’§ SteriPen FAF-ADP Water Filter Bottle Kit by Ashley Lanier

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Lightweight and functional

First, it works. It filters the sediment out of the creek and does a pretty good job. The only downside I see is that it can be a bit tricky to set up. This video shows how to put all the pieces together with minimal effort. The white filter needs to be flushed or rinsed about every 2 liters. I just bring it to my lips and blow hard (and fast) and it's clean. REWORK: Make sure you sterilize the water first (with Steripen) to prevent ingesting contaminated water when blowing through the filter, or use clean water for backwashing. Note. A: Over the years I have switched to Katadyn (https://www.amazon.com/Katadyn-8018273-Hiker-Pro-Microfilter/dp/B002CN82V2/) which is just as effective as the two Steripen products (UV -Filter). sterilizer and filter), requires no batteries and can be pumped directly into my bladder.

Pros
