Description
The LifeSaver Bottle is a water purifier bottle that lets you drink from ponds, lakes and rivers. Fill, pump and drink, with no measuring, wait times or bad taste.
Its ultrafiltration cartridge removes viruses, bacteria, cysts and microplastics, and an activated carbon filter reduces chlorine, lead, nickel and cadmium. FailSafe technology slows and then stops the flow when the cartridge needs replacing, so the last drop is as clean as the first.

Questions
What does the LifeSaver Bottle filter out of the water?
Per LifeSaver, the ultrafiltration cartridge removes 99.99 percent of viruses, 99.9999 percent of bacteria, 99.99 percent of cysts and 99.99 percent of microplastics. The activated carbon filter reduces chlorine, lead, nickel and cadmium and improves taste and smell, and LifeSaver says the Bottle turns cloudy or muddy water crystal clear.
How quickly does the LifeSaver Bottle deliver water?
LifeSaver rates the flow at 0.7 US gallons per minute. Use is fill, pump, drink: you fill the Bottle from a pond, lake or river, pump it a few times and drink, with no measuring, wait times or unpleasant taste. The pre-installed cartridge is good for up to 1,585 gallons.
How big and heavy is the LifeSaver Bottle?
LifeSaver lists it at 4 x 4 x 12 in with a dry weight of 22 oz and a 25 oz capacity. The maker says it is chunkier than a standard water bottle, about the size of a 1 liter soda bottle, because the shell is designed to survive military conditions and carries a strap.
What comes in the LifeSaver Bottle box?
Per LifeSaver, you get one pre-installed ultrafiltration cartridge rated for up to 1,585 gallons, one activated carbon filter rated for up to 65 gallons, a pre-filter scavenging sponge, the pump, a carrying strap and a paper manual. Replacement cartridges, carbon filters, sponges and pumps are sold separately.
Can I collect water from a shallow puddle with the Bottle?
Yes. LifeSaver includes a pre-filter scavenging sponge for soaking up water from hard to reach places, so you can wring water from a shallow source into the Bottle and then pump it through the filter. The maker suggests the Bottle for camping, hiking, hunting, fishing and emergency go-bags.
Is the LifeSaver Bottle BPA free, and where is it made?
Yes, it is BPA and BPS free, per LifeSaver, and the Bottle is manufactured in the UK. LifeSaver says it was originally designed for people in war-torn or disaster areas and has been tested by independent labs to meet the product specific NSF Protocol P248.
