Took the bottle out and about last week (3rd week without wash)...it started to smell like mildew, but after 2 days, the smell disappeared. Not sure why it smells and then stops smelling randomly like this...anyone have any thoughts? Links below - please consider using them.

I used this bottle while traveling in Africa. The water there is often mechanically filtered but can still have bacteria. This was a fantastic investment for that! Haven’t used it since but I’ll definitely bring this on travels, even though the bottle is quite heavy.

I’ve owned larq for like almost two years now, it’s great! Guys, the UVC cap will kill those smelly bacterias, it obviously won’t be removing sediments and nasty gunk so don’t go putting mud water in there and expecting that. If you want to try that out though, you can buy their filtration cap instead but that won’t remove the smell. Though I guess you can get both caps to double cleanse your water lol. Also, they have a water pitcher that has both functions, filtration and purification via UVC. It’s worth it, save money and live better imo.

I bought the water bottle about two weeks ago, so a few days before you posting. I too had smelly water bottle and was looking for a new one. Yes, $100 for a water bottle seems stupid but I still bought it. I didn't think twice about it and have no regrets so far. I use it every day for work. You also hit the nail on the cons, but I feel LARQ can resolve these issues. If they do USB-C and slightly bigger mouth hole (xD) on the next one, I will buy.

@BobertRads 10 ай бұрын

Didn't know I'd enjoy watching a water bottle video so much lol great vid! Would be interesting to see them develop different sized caps for water bottles that we already have. That would solve the lid size issue and I think more people would be more open to buying just a lid

@Ahnestly 10 ай бұрын

That would be sick! I wonder if the shape of the bottle impacts the effectiveness though!

@BobertRads 10 ай бұрын

@@Ahnestly True, and I would imagine there would be a size limitation for the cap to clean effectively, ie you wouldn't be able to thoroughly clean a 64oz bottle vs a 32oz one

@andieluke1366 10 ай бұрын

Does no smell equal no bacteria though? Especially if one drinks while having a meal, there's bound to be food transfer (even just wearing lipbalm does this). Also in my exp, there's a smidge of backwash when one drinks. I find the technology intriguing, but the idea of not washing a bottle for weeks on end skeeves me out hahahha

@Ahnestly 10 ай бұрын

Oh yeah the website says you may want to wipe the lip from all that gunk that builds up (but even then, it says you can wait 3-4 weeks). I wanted to go as nasty as I could for this video...so I cleaned nothing. LOL. Moving forward, I feel comfortable washing the entire bottle with all my bottle surgery tools every other week, and I normally empty leftover water out every day in the morning. It kills specific types of bacteria...I'm just really confused about how its been able to keep smells at bay! I forgot to link this - it's their lab certified reports for all their different technology (their non water bottle UV seems significantly better than the one I have here) imp.i263265.net/4PykM9 Scroll down and look for "efficacy reports"

Yes, water is contaminated by drinking. I typically can't drink from a store-bought plastic water bottle if I leave it unfinished for 3-4 hours. It just smells awful to me by then. I own a LARQ bottle for over 2 years on the other hand now and have no problem drinking from it even if it sat half-empty for a couple of days. I just wish they made a 40oz tunbler.

?? I have a 32oz Monoprice HydroFlask from 8 years ago. Use it daily for about 4 years. Clean it once a month? No mildew on the seal. Idk how ppl have this problem. I put alcohol in it sometimes and of course clean it after. But if you fill it 3+ a day id guess(bc of ice too) then how would it get funky?

@andersadler 3 ай бұрын

I get very annoyed with companies that try to sell their products with misleading information. The bottle (500ml PureVis) holds 500ml, but if you fill it with exactly that volume, you won't be able to put the cap on. And if you read the manual you will see the text "Fill with clear water up to the indicator line". And that line is about 10mm above the Larq logo on the bottle. Yes, the line that lies far below the bottleneck. So the volume you can fill the bottle and get it working is around 370ml (which is 26% less than the stated 500ml). They never tell any buyer that, so most users are probably using this bottle incorrectly...
