Excellent review! My boys are Eagle Scouts and I purchased us one for when we went on a week canoe trip on the Current river in Mo. this filter system was incredible for all of us and was easy to use! We still use it often! Your review was spot on and the main reason I purchased after doing my research. Thank you for this review!
I've got to say, Coach Helder's review of this product is top notch! In-depth review of the product with respect to the world wide applications and the usage. The background reference to the ANSI standards shows how much investigation was done. I had a problem registering on his site, thus getting to this specific review. This guy actually emailed me back in 15 minutes. That shows integrity! I have a lot of respect to this guys reviews. I plan to get this as soon as possible. Good Job, well done and thanks.
Thanks for the review. I've tossed and turned over the water addition to the kit bag, life straw and various others, but this review has helped me make the decision. It'll be the Pure2Go I add to the kit, when I can afford to pick one up. Cheers for the help.
Hello Rob & thank you for sharing your thoughts. I currently have a giveaway contest going on and it is for a Pure2Go Travel's Kit. If you are interested Here is the video: th-cam.com/video/O6zpGCTzm1M/w-d-xo.html Thanks again & if you choose to enter, Good Luck! -Hg
Excellent Rudy, you will not be disappointed. It has replaced all of the other filters in my go-bags. Enjoy and keep me posted. Thank you for the support! -Hg
Hi, great review and excellent product, one quick question, do you have the dimensions on the pouch that comes with the kit? I'm looking to purchase the product and upgrade the pouch to a better one, thanks!
Hello Juan, I just measured out one of mine and it is, approximately, 10.5" L x 7" W x 2.5" H Thank you for your support and feedback and I hope that helps! Also, let me know what you upgrade to. ;-) -Hg
Hello Chris, my best advice is to keep your purifier well maintained by rinsing it with clean water and letting it completely dry out each time that you use it. I hope that bit of info helps & thanks for the support! -Hg
Hello Meatwaggon, each set of cartridges will purify 300 gallons (1135 liters) of water depending on how much sediment is in the water. Cartridges should be changed at least every 3 years. You can purchase the spare cartridges & any extra accessories from Pure2go's website and other retailers will be available soon. I hope that info helps you & have a great day! -Hg
Glad that I could help! It's an awesome purifier, I got to test it around the world over the past 6 months & I definitely recommend it. If you pick one up, let me know what you think. Be safe & well! -Hg
The manufacturer states approximately 300 gallons, depending on the condition of the water. I have a bit more detail in my blog post if you are interested: coachhelder.com/review-pure2go-water-filter-emergency-preparedness/ -Hg
Hello Jonathon, when I notice that the flow rate begins to become much slower, I replace the filter. There is no indicator, that I am aware of, that will let you know that the filter needs to be changed. I hope that helps you. -Hg
The Pure2go is not a filter it's a water purifier a huge difference It doesn't block bacteria like water filters it KILLS bacteria, cysts and viruses. There's no precharging the device with water etc - you simply use it straight away. The purifier is good for 300 US Gallons or 1135 Litres. The product has a 2 year warranty and can be used and stored away with no worry of mildew or bacteria growing in your purifier as you have with cheaper water filters. The Pure2go has two cartridges that can be cleaned and reused and replaced after 300 or so US Gallons use. This means you never have to purchase another water purification device.. The Pure2Go Water Purifier can be used in line with the water hydration backpack providing clean purified water. The manufacturer of Pure2go [Water One Inc] provides pure water for the Laboratories and Pharmaceutical industries for the last 50+ years so they know what they are doing and they do it well. Pure2go can be purchased at pure2gopurifier.com/ or in the UK/Europe from www.pure2gouk.co.uk/
It really is an awesome water purifier and we can't wait to use ours for camping and travel! Just in case anyone else wants to get one at half the retail cost like we did, you can do that during the kickstarter campagin through 7/13/16: www.kickstarter.com/projects/224994807/pure2go-water-purifier-dont-just-filter-purify

how do you know when the filter is done, do you need to remember how many litres you drink as you go?

Why is he spitting the water out after each drink? Makes me nervous …
Why dose he spit the water out
The first sip or 2 from a new filter have some residuals is it so it is best to spit them out.

I like the confidence!
Good Luck, Lono!
