Portable water storage

[libertyphoenix777]

of should I say Dr. Prepper LOL

[libertyphoenix777]

What is Industrial grade DR PEPPER?

[EDDIE3131]

hickory nut!!!!

[commercialmats]

I like the idea of using several 15 gallon drums because it can be moved around a lot easier than the 55 gallon drums.

[TheBrotherMo]

Ever see these? Katadyn Survivor 35

It's a reverse osmosis desalinator that can pump fresh water from sea water, urine, brackish water, water contaminated with heavy metals and toxin.

During a coastal flooding disaster, you can simply drop the intake hose into the sewage tainted ocean water and pump fresh potable water.

Available on Amazon and eBay cheap with additional preservatives for the unit to try it and store it for SHTF.

And... it cleans itself, doesn't clog and mil-spec durable.

[iwantosavemoney]

good idea i like it

[relearnitall]

for thoughs of you that dont know,drinking water thats stored in plastic most all plastic leachs toxins n to the water that raises you estrogin levels mainly (estrogin 16) not a good thing for man or woman. this then changes your moods raises your chance of getting cancer, try to use glass.and as for putting plastic in a microwave oven... dont do it the plastic leachs straight into the food. estrogin is also in tap water from the treatment plant from the pill, fluoride also bad!!!!!

[Dkguerilla]

when storing water in my  basement how do i keep it fresh?

[jonf1023]

We use those at our remote hunt camp and we also add a few drops of chlorine bleach to keep any bacteria from growing within during long storage. We use it for cooking and drinking but we boil it before consuming it. We also have some 55 gallon ones that we collect rain water in for washing and showering only.

[Agent1W]

I drank water from a 'water buffalo' and it tasted TERRIBLE. I think it was because of the treatment it was given. It would burn and irritate your throat. Bleugh!!!

[Neuhausers1]

where did you get one of those?

[Lonewolf6565]

mmmmmmm industrial grade soda!

[lostindiancamp]

These old Dr. Pepper containers can't be used for potable water? I just bought one for that very purpose.

[davettalashley]

@lostindiancamp If there's something edible in it, it should be food grade plastic, but you should always make sure.

[TheLoneWolf258]

Oh btw, great videos. Keep up the good word 5++++

[TheLoneWolf258]

For that thing about sanitary reasons for not being able to drink it. Do you think if bleach or another kind of disinfectent would be put in there, it would it be clean?

[AnotherCompartment]

sounds like alex jones in the background.

[littlesurfer519]

industrial grade dr pepper

...now THAT'S funny

[jmk0309]

I will take one full of Coke or Pepsi haha =D

[Whitehorze]

You can purchase Various plastic barrels in a number of sizes if you look in the phone book. Finding one that can carry Potable (safe for drinking) water will be marked as such.

You never want to carry water in a container that has a HazMat sticker on it.

Not only is it unsafe but mixing certain chemicals with water can actually make them MORE dangerous.

Use your head and spend your money wisely.

[lakristianla]

Where the hell do you get all those weapons at?

[radioactivesludge23]

is that plastic container BHA free?

[Arthurmd22]

more great tips..i love it!

[hedgehoghunter007]

but what if i like dr.pepper

[jokin88]

lol

[charvercharver]

why dont you just buy one,less trouble and saves time..

and they dont smell of dr pepper

[kc7fys]

It's too bad the comments are disabled on your videos. Your stuff is EXCELLENT and informative. It's like having kind of a cross between Ned Flanders and Ross Perot explain how to survive.

Our scout group is using your videos and find them as entertaining as informative. Keep it up, brother!

[sgbofav]

To purify, add 4 drops of standard liquid chlorine bleach (5% concentration) per quart of water (or about 1/4 teaspoon per gallon), and double that amount for turbid or colored water. The treated water should be mixed thoroughly and allowed to stand for 30 minutes. The water should have a slight chlorine odor. If it doesn't, repeat the dosage and allow it to stand for an additional 15 minutes. The slight chlorine taste of treated water is additional evidence of safety.

[buckstarchaser]

It's very important to note that bleach kills microbes like bacteria and viruses. It does NOT remove poisons, dioxins, etc. If you can't absolutely confirm that it's a food container that contained only food don't drink out of it. Plastic absorbs petrochemicals and should never be deemed safe after it's contained them.

Also note that chlorine bleach kills ALL living things so don't put too much in water thinking it's better. It's never good for you but diahrea is bad too. :)

[09ssl]

virus is not living!

[buckstarchaser]

Actually... You're right about that and I should clarify. Chlorine bleach destroys DNA and other important compounds therefore preventing DNA from being replicated effectively. If it's alive, it becomes less alive or dead depending on how many cells it can aford to loose before dieing as an organism. Viruses are technicaly not alive but are reproduced from DNA. So even though your 4-word arguement is technically correct in a vacume... It's irrelevent and therefore wrong in this context.

[Sting3733]

mmmmm i love dr pepper

[superpunchy71]

It seems strange and out of place to be selling a plastic barrel that previously held Dr. Pepper syrup at a feed and fertilizer store. Maybe it was just a one time deal for that particular store. Couldn't you use it for drinking water storage if you ran bleach through it and soap and rinsed it out real good?

[Shishkan74]

He said it smelt like, "Industrial Dr. Pepper" meaning that it didn't actually contain soda pop, it had a pesticide or some other kind of chemical in it that just happened to smell like Dr. Pepper.

[KLipneR]

or maybe a syrup similar to that of dr. pepper might be used.

[zelphsafag]

Thanks Kev!

[fastedos1969]

they are fun to shoot. thanks for setting up.

[pfbram]

Check out used brewery equipment also. I still kick myself for not buying a large metal brewery keg at a garage sale when I saw it. Came back a couple hours later and it was gone.

[devildog68686868]

I teally think everything you had shown on you page it willbe handy soon, thats why i think i came across you site when i was searching to learn how to grow veg/and ruits on your own i need more learning and researching to do ,, i think the suvival will be implemented soon i.. the day we need it will be here in less then then we expected , but hey thank you again and your ini its real handy godbless all o us and america.....

[survivalistboards]

Has anyone priced aluminum lately? Its not a very cost effective option. These 16 gallon drums cost $9.

Does anyone here drink coke from a plastic bottle? How about water from a plastic bottle? But its not ok to use a 16 gallon drum?

[freedomzimbabwe]

Quote "in my opinion using plastic to storage water is not a good idea, the plastic will deteriate after awhile, and it will release toxins in the water. use glass containers or maybe like aluminum. " aluminum dents easily also gives you head aches and you obviously dont camp or hunt much JUKIO01 cos glass wieghs a ton and breaks also water storage in plastic is fine I it gust flavours the water after a while like wine in a wooden barrel

[hornstra1]

You had too much of water, there's something with your voice.

[theducktapeking]

Industrial grade Dr.Pepper... if only I still drank soda :D

[uberpaintballer]

looks like someone discovered a barrel

[NorthernWolf1]

People like you need to learn respect. He did not do anything to you and your insulting him for no reason at all.

[bettydaw1970]

nice pedistache

[JUKIO01]

[endlsswing]

i believe it may depend on the plastic as well. pehaps the one he has isn't as degradable, especially since it was used for making dr. pepper.

[qqstar999]

Plastic degrades in a rate of 10 OZ for every 1 Million years.

[sparxz1000]

There are diffrent types and grades of plastic. The figures quoted here are irrelvent. Softer plastics with loose molocules are mor more likely to "leech" into fluids or foods. Plasticd bottling plants have to batch tests every day.and test bottles for leaching, by heating water(different PHs), the cooling down. Water is removed and tested for plastic deposits in centrefuge. Most plastics a a public health hazzard, and cause cancer and infertility in men. Please do more research. FDA is not help

[cdltpx]

You can get the jugs that contain cooking oil too,clean those out for water storage or even 5 gallon jugs as long as they contained a food grade product it is safe to use for water storage. Porvided you keep out of direct sunlight since it can degrade plastics.I personally use 2 ltr bottles fill with water add a squirt of bleach about a tea spoon and write the date on the top and save them you would be shocked how many you accumulate come storm season you are stocked up with very portable h2o.

[PIONEERaudioLOVER]

would that squirt of bleach not hurt you and if it doesnt cdltpx would it not disipate after a long sitting. if it does how often do you replace this water supply?

[cdltpx]

It would dissipate and become less effective that is why you date the bottle then if it is over 2 years old you use it for hand washing or bathing. Less than 2 you know it is safe to drink adding the bleach is mainly to kill any bacteria that may be in the bottle if you wish to remove the bleach let the water stand 30 min then shake the water in the bottle to aerate. All city water has chorine in it bleach no scented bleach is just that chlorine we have clean water to start with.

[PIONEERaudioLOVER]

yea i just didnt know if the bleach had some cleanning agents in it that could be harmful yo you. thanks for replying.

[cdltpx]

For municipal water they use some seriously dangerous materials that are usually mixed on site. I looked into it and these are sold in personal minute amounts and are too costly to me. A lot of back packers carry a MSR filter to glean water while on the trail some just boil all water but that takes time and you can filter what you need quickly and be on your way with a filter. Tinny AKA minibulldotcom has knowledge on this and hikes.

[Pit01983]

nice!!

[ArboriusOwns]

Welcome back to YT

[usernamepasscode]

lmao, industrial grade doctor pepper....nice vid though, keep em up

[MadBadVoodo]

Five Stars!

[MadBadVoodo]

Why can't you use it 2 store drinking water?

[survivalistboards]

My preference, if you want to use it for drinking water, then do so.

[MrPencilTitS]

@MadBadVoodo Yea but if you left water in there with air it would get stale and maybe even rot so not the best idea to drink it.

[88Kamikaze69]

@MadBadVoodo

Try leaving a normal plastic bottle with some water in it for a few months and then try drinking that stuff, it won't kill you but it tastes like Sh*t....

[godsend420]

is that the same type of container u stored gas in or am i confusing the 2

[survivalistboards]

Yes, I have several of these types of drums.

[TruthSeekerStarr]

good info for the unaware... and i LOVE the forum!! we have a forum as well,not for survival info, although i have posted your forum up in our forum for others to see :)

thepeoplesrevolution(dot)net

thanks for the vid :)

[Carlstens]

Need to get some "Portable containers". Have a "Live well" and a 1000 gal cistern for supply. Need to get better filtration otions. Right now We've picked up a filter pitcher, and a couple of spare filters, for 10 bucks.

[mooahoo261]

that would be good fer a hot day,or camping!
