SURVIVAL STRAW WATER PURIFIER -- Few things are more important to your survival than clean, sanitized water -- and there’s few things more effective and portable than this water purifier. A must-have for Soldier and camper alike, this device more than meets FDA and EPA standards to kill viruses, bacteria and filter disease causing cysts. Simply immerse the filter end in unpurified water, and use it like a soda straw. The improved and patented 100% KDF alloy media (not silver or carbon) destroys more than 99.9% of harmful microorganisms. That includes bacteria and viruses like E. Coli, Giardia lambli cysts, Cryptosporidia, Algae mold and fungi. Unlike filters that merely attempt to trap impurities, the Survival Straw eliminates them!
At the size of a typical straw at 7.25 long, the filter and detachable straw can be stored in a Zip-Loc® bag. Avoid the Aztec Two Step, and be prepared for emergencies where clean water isn’t readily available. This affordable insurance plan for all travelers, campers, hunters and bikers makes a great gift. Further Details: Backwash with a mouthful of good water to clean for indefinite purification use. Removes Ethylene Dibromide (EDB), and eliminates soluble heavy metal toxins such as Iron, Lead, Mercury, Cadmium, and Arsenic. It also eliminates a wide range of carcinogens, including Pesticides, Herbicides, Chlorinated Hydrocarbons, Radon, Tri-Halomethanes and other man-made chemicals. Odors and bad taste are removed as the water is purified. Guaranteed proven by independent Lab testing. $26.99 on 6/2/06
