Reviews Can't be trusted in the backcountry  by: on: 20-Aug 2010 I would love to be able to recommend the steripen because when it works, it works great. What I can't figure out is why it works perfectly at home, but is very sporadic on the trail. On a recent weeklong backpacking trip in Utah three of us had these along and all experienced the same problem. It would only work correctly about 25% of the time - meaning that the light would successfully stay on for the required amount of time. The other 75% of the time we would all get the red failure light. I can assure you this was not operator error. It would often take three or four tries of having the light on in order to get it to work. Other times it would go straight to error and we had to give up. If you disregard this review and take it into the backcountry I strongly suggest that you bring either chlorine or iodine tablets as a back-up. Perfection  by: on: 03-Aug 2010 The steripen is awesome. I took it backpacking for the first time a couple of weeks ago and I have to say that this is probably my best investment for backpacking equipment I have ever made. The pre filter works better than I expected, and as I watched my friends use their pump filters I was watching the river roll by while using the UV light to kill any thing that could make me sick. My steripen took less time to get the job done and was a lot more portable. Everyone wanted it for day hikes. Best tool I own. Easily unusable.  by: on: 29-Jul 2010 If I could, I'd give this product a -5 review. I did not have any luck with this sterilization pen. My experience showed a product that was ill made & easily unusable & a complete waste of money. I used this on a bottle of water I had collected from a pond. I tested the levels before & then after treatment with the SteriPEN, & the reading before & after were almost the same. I would not recommend this product to my worst enemy. I will continue use a bottles of water I buy at the market. Works like a Champ by: on: 13-Jul 2010 I have used this for 2 weeks now of drinking nothing but lake water and never got sick. It is a quick and easy way to sterilize and filter water. It is compact and easy to carry and use. View All ReviewsView All Water Purifiers |
