    Worth noting that buying Sawyer products supports a pretty amazing humanitarian mission. Those guys donate substantial portions of the profits to providing free water filter systems in 3rd world nations where folks have no access to clean water.

      If I’m not mistaken it’s 1 for 1 as in you buy one filter they give one filter which is awesome I never feel guilty about buying their stuff even if I intend to let it sit on a shelf or in a bag hopefully forever

    Can you list the parts needed to make the hose that attaches the dirty water bag to the filter. I bought all the items from your last water video but like the idea of a longer hose to connect rather than connecting it all together as one unit like your last video.

  • @norseman6306
    @norseman6306 10 месяцев назад +5

    Great video! One thing I have done and recommend is tying paracord around the sawyer or other filter to wear around your neck under warming layers during winter months. I can have temps below freezing 6 months out of the year and this helps keep the filter serviceable. As you know, once the filter freezes it can be compromised. Again, that's where redundancy is a good thing. Keep up the great content.

    In the days of westward expansion of the US, pioneers would put silver dollars in their water and milk barrels to extend the shelf life during their travels. Silver is a natural germ killer. I put a silver coin in my coolers and water storage containers while out camping, etc. It works. It's nice to not get that funky smell.

    Awesome breakdown. The brew bag is a much better alternative to the coffee filters as a prefilter in the Katydyn. Going to pick up two of those for sure. A lot of great tweaks and adjustments here.
    What is the hose and cinch you use off the Katydyn and QD at 6:42? Is that one of the included Sawyer hoses that comes with the Squeeze and you added that cinch onto it?
    Also, any tips for getting the hose prefilters to fit inside the sawyer filter? With the Sawyer O-ring and the black rubber around the hose pre-filter, it takes up most of the thread space and I find I lose the ability to attach things to it so I forego it most of the time.
    Another great video!

    I use a similar setup, but with a few differences: MSR Guardian Gravity Purifier with 10L dirty bag, into (2) MSR 4L dromedary bags (sealed system). I also have a Platypus Carbon element I can add in-line, as well as (2) sawyers as back ups. I have the H2Go as well, and Cana decon kits on hand. The Guardian/Sawyer/H2Go do a great job removing all organic threats, while the carbon in the Guardian and Platypus canister helps with metals and chemicals. Canteen cup boiling with a multi fuel stove is also there in an emergency

    Hey, first of all I really appreciate your videos, no clickbait and just really good and useful information. I just have one question, why do you have the sawyer squeeze and the katadyn befree? Is it just for backup if one fails or are there any other advantages? Maybe I just missed something in the video. Thanks a lot for your time.

    • @PreparedAirman
      @PreparedAirman  10 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, it's for backup, and both filters use different adapters, so even if an adapter fails, I'm still able to filter water.

    That's a solid system, mate. I'm thinking of devising a Layer1 solution to permanently have in my sheen pocket: something like 2 condoms, 2 rubber bands, 2 coke bottlenecks, a Sawyer-mini and 10 purification tablets. Alternative super-lightweight system is probably the filter sock made of parachute nylon that Greencraft youtuber has DIYed.
    For a larger Layer3 system, I'm thinking 2L HydraPak with BeFree filter + boiling.
    Which purification tablets are the best? I've heard that AquaMira is better than Aquatabs and Portable Aqua.
    Also, which filter could also filter out some of the toxins, heavy metals and other chemicals?

    So I’ve been thinking for a few days, how does the p&g water coagulator pill work in your system? Because if you used it in the katadyn dirty bag, it’d clog the entire outlet up. I wish katadyn had a sediment tail like the puribag for that exact reason

    I see you still haven't yet tried out Seychelle water filtration and bottles. Tsk, tsk. You have no idea what you're missing... you don't have the ability to filter water containing radiation. That will be a huge problem in the near future. Seychelle already solved this problem for you. In fact, you will be able to simplify your water kit just using Seychelle stuff.

    • @PreparedAirman
      @PreparedAirman  10 месяцев назад

      I don't see how it would simplify things. The filters are only rated to 150 gal at $35 a piece. My family of 4 would burn though one every 19 days at a minimum. Plus, it operates with pressure, so if the bottle it's self fails, I'm screwd. I see the radiological benefits but it has more negatives the positives.
