So significantly bigger than the 0.3mic filter in that Katadyn Filter then :rolleyes:

See earlier post regards the issues with filters. Also, why would someone want to spend 70 quid on a filter when they can simply boil the water is beyond me. Never mind carry the thing about.

Your post with link didn't take me to the filter in question - merely the main website.:rolleyes:

honestly, I dont think Ill need the well.

Ive travelled quite a bit independently, and I have neve rfound the need for even water purification tablets, although ive usually travelled in South America, carribbean, central america etc.

These people have it for £18.99 http://www.rvops.co.uk/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=77_35&products_id=1260

As I said, I keep mine for emergencies, when I can't be sure of getting clean water. The last time I used one was four years ago in Bangladesh, and I was certainly glad of it then! My current one's probably visited over 20 countries without being used. I keep it in the bottom of the rucksack, it dosen't take up much room!

Oh and have a Happy Birthday! :beer:
