Aquamira Red Line Filtered Water Bottle
Product Information
So in my last post I talked about some of our Aquamira favorites, and I even mentioned the Aquamira Red Line bottle, but I didn’t have enough time to go into some of the details. That’s what I’m going to do now.
First off let’s get something straight, if you want clean water, boil it.
If you want to get technical check out the CDC’s guide on how to kill protozoa, virus and bacteria here.
However, for the survivalists/outdoor types like us, it gets old lugging around water treatment drops or, in my case, a canteen with a stainless steel cup to heat my drinking water. Furthermore when you’re on a day hike or when your caught in an on-the-go situation you may not have time to boil your water.
That’s where the WaterBasics Red Line Bottle wins the day.
It kills 3 birds with one stone. Check it out;
