Simple And Easy To Use

This is great for having in the camping gear and then just grabbing some AA batteries on the way out of town. I have a Lifestraw pump that gets the big stuff out and then I can sanitize with the Steripen for extra peace of mind. The two modes can be tricky to figure out so I’d recommend doing a couple trial runs at home to get the hang of it first. When using the pen, I’d highly suggest NOT watching it and saving your eyes from the UV damage. Just keep it steady so the two probes stay in the water and then do a countdown in your head unless you have UV blocking eyewear.

Great For Travel

As someone who gets sick from the water a lot when traveling, this has helped me to not get sick from using the water when I travel! I will make a cup of water and use this to make the water safe for me to brush my teeth and drink. I will also use it for my water bottle whenever I refill it while abroad.

Must Have!

I have used my SteriPen for years both while living abroad (I drank water from the Amazon River) and on thru hikes and backpacking. I know i can rely on it's performance and it's one of the easiest and quickest methods on the market for sterilization. I have convinced so many of my friends to buy SteriPens.

Essential Piece Of Kit

Works fantastic, absolutely essential. Only reason I gave 4 stars is because I would absolutely recommend getting a rechargeable pen instead of carrying batteries

Easy To Use And Compact To Carry

Great tool for hiking, backpacking, and having for emergency sterilization. At home in case of a loss of domestic water
