Works well good for reservoirs

I bought this mainly because of the check valve on the mouthpiece. It's also nice to be able to remove the mouthpiece and spray water by squeezing the pouch more evenly than through the mouthpiece. I use this to give my dog water or wash things up. My mouthpiece was not cut like some others. I used a razor blade to lightly trim it.

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Good but not great

2 defective packages, bite valve not cut

These liquidation bite valves, buyers be careful not to buy them! I bought 1 month ago, there is no gap in it. I tried to carefully cut mine, it didn't work. Well I thought maybe try again, order 2 more because I thought my 1st part was actually a defective part. No, they all seem defective. Now I'm going to return them in the hope that Revain will take them off the market as they are unusable.

Pros
  • This is amazing
Cons
  • So far so good

I couldn't see it, but Camelbak got it right.

I have two camel backs with these bite valves and they work great for quick connection to my water filter. My wife bought another brand of packaging and lost her bite valve so I bought her one of these. It didn't work properly. It wouldn't turn off no matter how hard we pressed the buttons. I contacted Camelbak and received such excellent customer service that I am willing to give four stars. Things in life are rarely perfect. What matters to me is that this company immediately sent me another…

Not compatible with other quick connectors

1. Does not shut off water supply when off.2. As other reviewers have pointed out, the bite valve was not pre-cut.3. The female connection is recessed 1/2" further than others so it won't work with other brands QuickConnects, not even Camel tanks. I wanted to use it to pair with a hiking water filter so #3 was a large one Disappointment #1 isn't much of a problem for me as it has an on/off switch and I was able to cut the bite valve to solve the problem of #2 a gas mask which he probably does a

Almost impossible to separate the parts - Highly recommend buying

, very dissatisfied with this purchase. The parts do not fall apart after joining. Also, what I received does not match the photo. The "unlock buttons" are two very small parts on either side that need to be pressed simultaneously to unlock (I think vague instructions come with that I think), not a single button. one side as shown in the picture. Despite this, the buttons can hardly be pressed, so that the two parts are now almost permanently connected. As a removable mouthpiece, it is…

Pros
  • , practical item
Cons
  • , upgrades

Worth the money, easy on/off switch

Bought to replace the valve on my hydration bladder (not camelback) which was locked and quite uncomfortable. It fits in the phone with no problem. Just measure the line first. Make sure its inside diameter is 1/4 inch and it fits. I like this valve more because the on/off flip is easier to operate with one hand. The large bite valve is also positive. A little more water per sip. Camelbacks valves are well cut and open well when bitten and not that bad of a leak in my experience. The flip…

Pros
  • Comfortable to use
Cons
  • A little torn

Stay away! good for outdoor recreation

Totally terrible product! The instructions say to push and turn the valve to open the gap. That does not work! The only way I see to open the slit is to cut it open with a knife, which I assume will destroy any seal. The next problem is that quick release of the valve is very difficult and will cause the o-ring to come loose. Again, provided it prevents anything from being sealed. Now the most annoying! I cut the old valve off my hose to make this one and left the hose shorter and the excess…

Pros
  • New
Cons
  • Negative impression

A must for camelbaks with Big Bite attachments.

If you have a Big Bite style Camelbak this is a must have replacement. Ever since my son started drinking from our water bags, leaks have become too common. With this kit I can turn the water flow on or off without disasters. I. Let's face it, there have been a few times I've squeezed the tip too tight and stuffed it into my backpack without the baby being involved. I later opened the bag and found my water everywhere but the bag. This hasn't happened since installing the kit. When I bought the
