“The ‘Lifesaver bottles’ were tested using micro organisms in far greater numbers than could ever be found in natural water sources. This is the worse-case scenario approach recommended by the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) and their guidelines have been used to draw up our own protocols for testing of all Microbiological Water Purifiers. As well as using modified tap water for our tests we use samples taken from a pond or stream as our challenge test water to simulate ‘real-life’ situations as per EPA guidelines.”
Under the conditions of testing in our laboratory as shown in this report, our results show that the ‘Lifesaver Bottle’ removed all bacteria and viruses from a contaminated water source in excess of legal requirements and as such, complies with all British, US and European Drinking Water Regulations for Microbiological Reduction.

here is the US site http://www.lifesaverusa.com/ you can get one from. This is honestly one of the better ideas I have seen. I'm honestly going to pick one up something will happen one day and this is the best idea I think I have seen.
Not six hundred, man, six THOUSAND. Wish my granddad could've had one of these; his liver took a beating once when he was hiking and got beaver fever (infection due to animal urine in his drinking water--he thought it was a clean stream). Posted via RS Mobile
It's kinda expensive but a real lifesaver during disasters. I wonder how long is the shelf life of this bottle for the occasional hiker. The water bottle companies are not thrilled about this

so it's a super filter...filters out things at 25nm and bigger
there's a lot that u can't filter out though and can be dangerous to human health
like alcohol..ethers....acids..amides..hydrocarbons..an ything at the molecular level
it just seems like a super particulate filter which is good for short term water use but who knows what harm prolonged use can do
