Product Description:

This First Need Deluxe water filter replacement cartridge has a 0.1 micron carbon matrix filter element which cranks out a rapid 1.8 liters per minute. The First Need by General Ecology has the finest filter among the water purifiers we sell and it also offers the fastest pump rate. One customer tested his out on a pot of coffee and found he had a cup of fresh water on the other end (we recommend using the clearest water possible but its a good story!). The First Need Deluxe Water Purifier Cartridge has a capacity of 135 gallons which is substantial if you consider that the average person consumes about a half gallon per day. Backpackers like the First Need Purifiers compact size and 15 oz weight (complete water filter). The Deluxe Water Purifier now has a redesigned handle which fits comfortably in the palm of your hand.

It keeps me healthy       rating

I purchase a replacement filter to take with me for a wilderness camping using canoe. We were out for four days and not one of us came down with the runs. We each took turn pumping the filter as it became hard to pump after a while. This is one of the few filter that filters everything including virus.

Much better then the original cartridge I bought a few years ago. Has different threads to match smaller and larger water bottles.

We received quick shipping of our two canisters. They are the newer model, unlike the picture, which is the original canister like we had. The canister fits just like the old one. It does not have the cover on the bottom like the old one, only a little white piece to cover the water outlet only. We will put it to the test this summer, but expect it two work as well as the old one.
