Sawyer PointOne Squeeze Water Filter System List Price: $59.99 Sale Price: $47.95 |
|
The Sawyer Squeeze Filter is the lightest and most versatile filtration system on the market. With a total field weight of 3 ounces and ability to roll up, it takes up virtually no space in your pack. This product includes 3 pouches (0.5 liter, 1 liter, and 2 liters) that can be reused hundreds of times. A larger 2-liter capacity bag is also available. The Squeeze filter is perfect for traveling abroad where tap and bottle water cannot be trusted. The filter removes 7 log (99.99999 percent) of all bacteria like salmonella, cholera, and E. coli, and 6 log (99.9999 percent) of all protozoa such as giardia and cryptosporidium. You will find these removal rates to equal or exceed competitive options. EPA guidelines allow ten times more Protozoa left in the water than we allow. This filter does not remove dissolved solids, including chemicals and heavy metals. Directions for Use Fill up the pouch of your choice at a lake, stream or river Screw the filter directly onto the pouch Squeeze the bag and filter water into your water bottle or container of choice. Drink directly from the filter, which has a built in push pull cap for on/off functions. Attach the filter onto most threaded water bottles including 2 liter bottles. Contents of Extractor Pump Kit (view larger). See larger image. Contents 3 lightweight durable collapsible pouches (0.5- , 1.0-, and 2-liter capacities) 1 Sawyer 0.1 Absolute Micron hollow fiber membrane screw on/off water filter 1 replaceable pop up drinking spout 1 cleaning syringe Cleaning and maintenance instructions Frequently Asked Questions How do I know which level of filtration I need? First consider where you will use your filter. If it's here in North America, then the 0.1 filter will probably do just fine. However, if you suspect there are viruses in the water then you need to either use the 0.02 filter or add a small amount of chlorine to the water. If you are traveling overseas, the 0.02 would be the safest choice. How will I know when the filter if full? The flow of water will slow down. However, it will never fail. Once the filter starts to slow down simply backwash it and it will be as good as new. Is this good for kids at camp? Yes, it is easy. It is safe. It couldn't be more perfect! How do I get water for a group of people? You can hook the inline filter to a gravity bag or the bottle filter can be used in a Nalgene soft canteen and then water can be squeezed out for a group of people. If a faucet is available, then the faucet adapter can be used. For larger groups use multiple filters attached to the same container--like a 55-gallon clean trash can. An inline filter can be used with a pump filter if desired. If used as a pre-filter you not only increase the filtration levels but you'll never need to clean the pump filter. If the inline clogs it is easily backwashed by putting in after the pump for a few seconds (in a backwash position) and then returning it to the pre-filter position. If I put the inline on my Camelbak, can I take it off? Yes, and the connector to put your hose back together is included with the filter. Can I put the filter in a different / smaller bottle? As long as the bottle has a "standard" 63 ml thread you can. You may need to trim the connecting hose to the proper length. How often should I clean the filter? For longer filter life, you should backwash and sanitize the filter after every outing. If I backwash it, will the bacteria in the city water grow in the filter? We recommend sanitizing the filter before storing it. If you backwash the filter and then use it, bacteria from the city water will not grow. Is it going to get clogged while I'm out on a trip? Even with very high particulate /turbid water you should get 5 to 10 gallons through the filter. If this is not enough water for your trip you should either plan on field backwashing your filter. Simply fill up the pouch of your choice at a lake, stream or river, screw the filter directly onto the pouch and 1) Squeeze the bag and filter water into your water bottle or container of choice. 2) Drink directly from the filter which has a built in push pull cap for on/off functions. 3) Attach the filter onto most threaded water bottles including 2 liter bottles. The Squeeze filter is perfect for traveling abroad where tap and bottle water cannot be trusted. |

Potholes are a perennial problem in the UK, causing damage to motor vehicles and posing serious accident threat to cyclists and motorbike owners who can easily come a cropper if they approach a concealed hole at speed.
The hazards are particularly prevalent following the kind of cold snap recently suffered by Britain and it's often a bone of contention when highway authorities fail to adequately deal with potholes. To that end, online pothole database FillThatHole.org.uk has named and shamed the worst-hit counties in England - and the local authorities who don't seem to be doing a great deal to address the problem.
Surrey tops the table as the most pothole-ridden county, with 1,884 reports from road users to date and more than 1,400 of those hazards still to be filled, meaning 75% of potholes discovered in the area continue to be a menace to drivers. Transport for London also takes a hammering for only having fixed 15% of reported potholes - just 38 resolved cases of a possible 259 to date.
On the other side of the coin, authorities in the north of England are seemingly a lot more on the ball. Cumbria ranks well, having fixed 216 of 263 reported cases - that's an impressive 83% conversion rate. Newcastle, while having to deal with fewer potholes, fares just as well having given adequate attention to 68 of 91 hazards - also an 83% rate.
Road users are encouraged to actively use the site, reporting each and every pothole they come across, in the hope that authorities will really sit up and take notice.
In the meantime, with potholes causing huge problems, cyclists and motorcyclists are advised to be as vigilant as possible. With so many potential hazards on the road, motorcyclists should ensure that their insurance is in place; the repercussions for being caught without cover just aren't worth the risk of going without. There are cheap deals to be had whatever the machine - whether it's Kawasaki, BMW or Triumph motorbike insurance that's needed, cheap premiums are out there for those who shop around for the best deal.
Sarah Maple writes about bikes for Bennetts UK who compare motorcycle insurance [http://www.bennetts.co.uk/Bike-Insurance/Motorcycle-Insurance] and moped insurance [http://www.bennetts.co.uk/Bike-Insurance/Moped-Insurance] to make sure you get the best deal.
Travel Photography: Traveling With Gear
There is a mind numbing amount of considerations when packing for your photography trip. Such as which lenses you will need, how you are going to store your photos and how you are going to carry it all around. Then there's the pleasure of getting it all past the ever tightening luggage restrictions of airlines. A little forethought and planning can help make sure you don't get stuck without essential equipment and aren't burdened by what you don't need.
The gear
Perhaps the most obvious consideration is the camera and lenses. If you have planned your itinerary already you will have an idea of the types of shots you want to take. If you haven't, stop what you're doing right now and do this first. Once you know what photos you want to take, you can decide on the lenses that will best help you take them. Thinking landscapes? Then don't be without your wide angle lens. Intimate portraits? Maybe a mid range zoom would be useful.
If you are debating taking a spare camera body then don't. Debate that is. Pack it. The last thing you need is for your camera to be stolen or break while on the road. You might not be able to find a repairer, and if you do they might not be able to fix it on the spot. That would be the end of your photo taking adventure right there. Don't learn the hard way for the sake of a little extra weight.
Then there are all the accessories that may or may not come in handy. Should you pack that set of neutral density filters? Again, think of the types of photos you will be taking. If its landscapes, then yes, by all means put them in. If its portraits they are probably just going to take up space. This goes for the tripod as well. Usually, travel portraits are taken hand held, usually with abundant light. Landscapes however tend to be early morning or late afternoon.
Storage
Once you've figured out what your going to need to take your pictures, you need to put some thought into how to store them. Should you take your laptop, a portable hard drive or two, a bag full of memory cards or all of the above? How much storage you will need depends on how long your stay is and how much shooting you'll be doing. A laptop is useful if you need to view images as you go, or want to do some editing back at the hotel room. But if not, its just one more expensive piece of equipment you need to worry about. Leave it at home. Some portable hard drives have a viewing screen so you can review your photos as you upload them, which can be handy to see if you have the shot you want and gives you the chance to go back and try again if you missed it.
As a rule, it is a good idea to have two copies of your images as hard drives are notorious for failing at inopportune times. If you have a good supply of memory cards, backup to a portable drive and store the used cards is a separate place.
Getting it around
There are a few different options for carrying your gear around with you at a location. Shoulder bags tend to be able to hold a large amount of gear, but have the disadvantage of all the weight hanging off one shoulder. These bags are a good choice if you don't have to do too much walking, but carrying gear around like this for days can do serious damage to your back.
Backpacks have the advantage of distributing the weight evenly, making them ideal for locations where you will be doing a lot of walking. Many of them also have the extra benefit of not looking like camera bags and so tend not to draw as much attention.
Many considerations go into packing for a photography trip. But think it through and take the gear that suits the style of photography you want to do and the place you are going and it will allow you to focus more on what is around you when you get there, rather than trying to decide which lens to use and missing the shot altogether.
