That's $1.99 more than 2 here with $5 shipping.

But for like $0.48 more you can get 3 :P

Might be okay for backpacking if used with adjunct systems, e.g. Steripen, but it doesn't look like it's designed to filter anything substantial. Would have been swell to have last backpacking trip; I used a Steripen on some trickle (but moving H20 and thought it would be okay. I took a few gulps of the treated water and thought something was weird- got near the bottom of the bottle and saw a bunckh of tiny dead tadpoles (or fish?). It would have been just the thing to catch that, but I have no idea if it can be backwashed/rinsed if used with slightly unclear water.

pass

If you buy two of these on one order do you pay shipping x 2 = $10 for shipping?

Woot is still cheaper.

Watch out, Woot!
You're raised the ire of the entire Gregory Hines fan club!!!

They have a quality problem with the lids. I have one of these and water can leak out between the threads if you squeeze the bottle too hard, or perhaps if the bottle is too warm. It does make the water taste better. I think these are good for out doors, as if you get leaked upon you are outside in clothes that can handle being a bit wet.

I do like the one I have and locally the filters are 2 for $9.99 at HEB (grocery store). I just wish the leak issue was not there. The leak happens with my co-workers bottle also.

You tend to have to be very gentle when squeezing and suck on the cap. It works it just takes a little practice.

If you don't like the water where you are these may be for you. If they fix the caps I'd recommend them highly, as they are your enjoyment may vary.

Great for a gag gift idea though!

If replacement filters cost more than buying one water bottle from Woot, just buy up a lot of water bottles for the filters that come with.

I bought mine from Amazon for about $80. It will pump clean water from any stream at a rate of 1 liter per minute. I took mine on a day hike in the Smokies over Labor Day weekend and filled my water bottles and those of a couple of boys in our Scout troop in just a few minutes. Best tasting water you'll ever drink. When you get home you wash the plastic parts with the dishes and run a small abrasive pad over the ceramic filter to wear off the top layer with the contaminants. Eventually you will need to replace the filter which runs about $40 but I've never had to replace mine. When not hiking or backpacking I keep mine in our emergency go-bag so my family will always have potable water to drink.

Ordered a couple of the 2 packs of these last week and received today. It definitely took the tang out of my good ole city water and made it quite palatable. But think, after 1000 gals (whos going to put notches on side of bottle for this) wouldn't you rather throw the whole thing away and start fresh?

In for 3. Good reviews on Amazon

Three bottles works out to $4.16 per bottle; at the buy.com site that works out to $5.99 per bottle. Obviously better on woot if you want the three bottles.

If only you could buy more than 3.

No flat rate shipping you can order up to 3 , with only 5.00 shipping .

allstarfame wrote:If you buy two of these on one order do you pay shipping x 2 = $10 for shipping?

Woot charges shipping per order not per item. 3 costs the same as one.

In for 3. Needed something like this for the bugout pack.

Woot, 3 for 12.47 includes shipping.
Woot = Better Deal! ^..^~~~~!

Good for Android or just iOS?

Buy six. Each filter is good for ~ 100 gallons. So if you drink your required 3 bottles per day, you will have a 4 year supply of bottles/filters. Watch for woot to have these on special again somtime in the next four years. Filter replacement problem solved. I just recieved the six I bought last time woot had them.

For a bugout pack, you'll want something that more reliably filters out the bad things in water. Assuming a crisis would be the time where you'd really want to be able to depend on equipment, it wouldn't be the time to look back and say, gee...shouldn't have been so cheap.

You do realize that $2.49x2 = $4.98 right? Which is cheaper than $4.99 by $0.01

Not to mention that the Deals isn't a link to Woot's site, it goes to another company's website.

I say save your money and dare to drink straight out of the tap.

Sure, laugh at me now, but when the Zombies or the fallout comes, I'll be able to drink on the run even if it means RAD+2 hit on my health!

Yea, either that or I'm just that cheap.

Eve of Destruction? I'm looking for that on Blu-ray!

I thought about posting a link to Woot in the comments.

i thought were gonna say it mentioned about people addicted to drinking there own pee...

I'm so thirsty

Filters are changeable. Checked the co. website. They are priced at 12.99/2. Might be found cheaper elsewhere.

I already have some serious water treatment stuff in my bugout vehicle. Looking for something small like this for my small pack that fits behind the seat of my truck.

Tempting, but made in China. I'm out.

might buy it if it shipped free

I want to buy 6 but Woot won't let me! Why can't I put in a second oprder for another 3?

This is my first woot off purchase ever. I was wondering if anyone could let me know if the yellow bar really means anything. I thought that it was suppose to indicate how far along the product is to selling out, but then I refreshed my page and the bar dropped. Either I must be wrong or woot just got another shipment in.

Question: Are these Mac compatible?
