Very few things are worse than being thirsty while on a hiking or camping trip. It’s hot, your water bottle is empty, but you’re in luck, as a stream of water is nearby. With the LifeStraw personal Water filter, you can safely drink out of the stream and quench your thirst. As part of Amazon’s Black Friday Deals, the LifeStraw Personal water filter is on sale for $10, a 50% discount from its original $20.
The personal water filter’s microfiltration membrane removes 99.99% of waterborne bacteria, including E. Coli and Salmonella, as well as parasites such as Giardia and Cryptosporidium. Small microplastics down to 1 micron are removed as well, and the straw reduces turbidity down to 0.2 microns.
