you know you can buy a small filter that goes on your bottle (made by steripen) that filters out that nasty stuff and sentiment...you can get them on Amazon.com or ebay...I believe they are around 12 bucks...sometimes maybe cheaper....I believe the filter is .4micron...I believe but you should make sure of that in case you want to purchase it....thx for the vid...
@TheBgcheez seems to be fine for me, however I have the adventurer which uses the CR123 batteries instead of the AA other steripens use, so I wouldnt want to speak for the other models. Thanks for watching!
thanks for the review. I just got the SteriPen Adventurer Opti. It's the same product but comes with an LED light. Looking forward to drinking from the Great Lakes in the coming weeks!
Im getting the aquamira Frontier filter strawr and using the pen as well. The straw filters cost 12 bucks and what I am going to do is use the UV pen in the water and then suck the water out of the bottle with the straw filter. That is the best combination I can think of that will treat your water completely. Thout I would share with everyone. Straw filters weight less than an ounce and the UV pens are pretty light too. Use the 2 in combination for best results.
Hey dude great review. Welcome to the mainland. I usually carry the cone shaped coffee filters in my water purification kit. They work great for pre-filtering, they are very light weight and they can be burned as fire tender in an emergency. Take it easy bro. By the way you will probably like the gun laws in Kentucky much better!

Does the UV light penetrate the plastic bottle to sterilize the water on the threads and the outside of the bottle?

@CCWSig No, UV does not penetrate plastic or glass.

Great review! I usually carry a bandanna in my daypack to prefilter my water and then use tabs or boil.

A bandanna is a great idea, I will be picking up one for sure, thanks for the idea, and thanks for watching!
