I have one and it is truly amazing. I have used it for over two years without a single failure. I use this in combination with a Sawyers filter and when using both the H2gO and the Sawyers Mini I am 100% confident that I am drinking safe water.

This is a great combination to speed up the treatment process, using two very affordable technologies! - Katie

I have one and have to say this is the most amazing, WELL-BUILT item out there. Millions need this and Many millions will need this in the coming next few years.

Have you tested how well the battery holds up under extended times in cold weather? That's my only concern. I know most battery operated equipment doesn't fare well in those conditions.

@@tommyboy2607 The battery is lithium-ion. Other studies on lithium-ion batteries show that battery performance may temporarily slow down in cold weather, but once the temperature is brought back up, there is no lasting negative impact. In other words, the H2gO purifier can be subjected to temperatures as low as -4 deg F (-20 deg C) without damage, unlike most filters. However, the battery should not be charged in freezing temperatures. Effectively, you should treat it like you would your cell phone. --Katie

I am awaiting for my shipment. I have been using the Roving Blue O-Pen for few years now. It never failed me. I will try this one when it arrives.

How long can your store this device in your preps without using it before the battery is , or can we change out the battery

Hi Daniel, we do not have a precise answer for the battery’s shelf life. I know that I have had my own devices for somewhere around 8 years, and I still have no problem charging them. Aqua Research did a 3-year study, storing the devices unused in a dark location, after which the batteries were still viable. Like with other lithium-ion batteries, you can expect to charge the device about 500 times before battery capacity starts dropping off. Best practices including ensuring that the battery has a charge (between 40% to 60%) during storage to prevent over-discharge, although I have not been very diligent about this myself and have not noticed any impact. Thanks! --Katie
