- In this video which is Part 2 of our water filter series (of 2) we will be testing my DIY RV water filter vs the Clear 2o and Camco Taste Pure water filters. The results are telling.

Best video thank you!
Been looking for months why all these filter “systems” are so pricey. I’m doing this
That’s exactly what led me to build this. It’s still working great to this day.
Here from Red, White & Bethune to give Raygen prayers and best wishes! I hear it’s her Birthday too! Happy Birthday 🎈🎁🎂🎉
Aww thank you so much! ❤️
Another detailed, informative video! So glad I found you and subscribed!
If I could ask for anything more, it would be for an analysis of microbes before and after. There’s lots of stuff that can make you sick even in water with low chemical and sediment levels.
I’ve seen a lot of buzz about using UV filters at the tap for drinking water. I’d be interested for your take on that.
Thank you!
That’s a good idea. I do have 2 bacteria tests. Hmmm
Such a great well-done video, thank you! You deserve more subscribers!
Thank you so much! Hope it helped!
u are the man, this is an awesome video buddy!
That was an incredible demonstration!
Great video. Very informative. We use the camco filter, but we never drink water from the rv. We use it for washing dishes and shower only. After seeing your video, I will definitely try the 3 stage filter system. Thanks for the video.
It’s completely worth it!
Great video!!!!
I heard Raygen is not doing well and is in the Hospital. And it's her Birthday. So sorry, sending prayers for healing and love.
Thank you so much! We really appreciate it!
oh no, i've been using the camco full time for a year :( most scientific, objective review I've found so far. can't help but wonder what the 'gold standard' is for testing water quality.. wonder if submitting original and filtered samples to a lab would be worthwhile?
Excellent presentation. Helps me a lot.
Excellent build idea and exactly what I was seeking. Add in a water pump that plugs into AC and 12v and a great setup. Sorry, but your "water fundraiser" has absolutely ZERO credibility when you dump (at least) 3 gallons of water right onto the ground from your homemade system.
I appreciate the feedback, and understand your concerns, however clean drinking water isn’t an issue where we are, and the water isn’t removed from the water cycle, so it isn’t quite as wasteful as it may seem. More of a financial issue (purification) than a waste of water. That fundraiser is to provide clean water to those who need it.
Hopefully the good that this video has done for people outweighs the minuscule amount of water that will need to be cycled back through the system.
Where yall at these days? We in NC Mountains for the summer.
Great video👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Thank you so much!
Just wondering how you test for microbes and viruses.
Happy Birthday🌸🌼🌸🌼😄💕🌸💕
Thank you so much!!
I like the DIY system, but that one filter is not made to filter lake water. Bacteria, Cysts (>.5 micron diameter) Virus (
Is that something that can be installed in a 4th additional filter step

I'm estimating the chunk size of your 3" XtraBlue tablet at about 1/5th of a tablet/puck.
Clorox directions are 2 tablets/pucks per 10,000 gallons. So your 1/5th tablet should treat about 1,000 gallons.
Both your DIY filter unit and the Clear 2o filter did some impressive filtering, by reducing the chlorine level so much.
Good Work!
So the purified water you showed with 0 PPM is that almost like distilled water? What is the limit on PPM considered safe? Also, do you carry and use a water softener? Great video!!
Exactly, RO or Reverse Osmosis is just a significantly more efficient way of purifying water. Ideally less than 500ppm is good for drinking water. The less the better. We do not currently have a water softener, but plan to one day. Thanks a bunch for watching!
Wished you showed the sediment meter results for each filtered bucket. Was it still 5500 for each?
The reading was identical for all of the tests, exactly 5507 ppm. That was the reason I didn’t show it, it just felt redundant.
@@TodayWeGo thank you very much for responding. Appreciate knowing that! Great stuff!
@@TodayWeGo so your 3 stage didn't lower the TDS?
You didn't do ANY OTHER TDS meter readings!!!!
thank you very much
How can the diy set up be sealed/filtering properly when those three filters have different heights and all different gaskets/seal dimensions? Good idea, but I suspect the filter choice needs some refinement.
Merci!
Thank you so much!
Ok, so… how do I install that so it filters from my fresh water tank? And how often do you change each stage? Just curious. Especially on the install so it will filter water from my fresh water tank as well as city water…
What's the overall dimensions of your setup
If
I need to make a portable setup in the largest Apache case
If your rv sits unused for a few months to a year, can you still use the same Clear2o filter, or would mold grow in it?
Could you drink that water after you filter it or would you have to get a Drinking filter as well?
We drink it straight out of the faucet after it’s filtered
@@TodayWeGo what are the filters that you used
@@TodayWeGo i dont live in my camper so would this still work or should i do the clear 2o filter and if i have to do the clear 2o filter can i still drink it
Pee in the lake water and then test
