LifeSaver® Jerrycan | Water Purifier - up to 20,000 Litres | Camping, Overlanding, Vanlife, Caravanning & Emergency Preparedness (Black)

Works as described but find the flow is very slow

Very very good

I take this when I go out camping. Knowing that I have a clean safe source of water without having to bring gallons of water with me is fantastic

First class customer service !

Water that has been through this filter is completely tasteless! It’s wonderful

If you are going to be in a situation or environment where your not sure if a water source is safe to drink this is a good option for filtering it to a very safe and clear standard,it can turn dirty puddle water into bottle quality in minutes and will handle up to 20,000 litres depending on how clear or dirty the water source.

Higher recommended for outdoor filter of any water supply

Been after one of these for ages, finally decided to get one. They have an excellent reputation, especially amongst overland travellers, who swear by them for being able to give clean drinking water from the most unreliable of sources. Very happy with the product and service from the seller. Happy to recommend both

Ein super Artikel. Der Wasserfilter filtert unreine Gewässer bestens und ist für mich auf Reisen zum Alltagstool geworden. Eine sehr gute Investition, trotz des hohen Eigengewichts. Passt auch hervorragend in Benzinkanisterhalterungen um am Fahrzeug gesichert zu werden.

Práctico y súper útil purificador de agua. Evita la compra de garrafones de agua. El agua corriente sale pura de bacterias.

Genial producto; llegó justo a tiempo. Ahora solo necesitaré comprar los filtros de carbón activo. Ojalá y también Amazon los venda (repuestos, accesorios).

The Lifesaver filter appears to be the only mechanical filter on the market that is also capable of filtering viruses due to the very small 0.015 micron filter size as compared to other well known and reliable systems such as the Katadyn Pocket water filter which has a 0.2 micron Silver Ceramic filter cartridge. The Katadyn Pocket filter fact sheet also mentions that the mechanical 0.2 micron filter can also filter radioactive particles which are larger than 0.2 microns. The Lifesaver will probably have even better performance filtering radioactive particles greater than 0.015 microns. A radioactive particle at 0.015 microns diameter will have 2700 times less radioactive potential than a 0.2 micron particle. The Lifesaver system is probably the best CBRN water filter commercially available. Even the bacterial reduction performance shows a very impressive Log 7.5 reduction. In reality that is getting to the point when no individual bacteria can be measured passing through the filter. Other conventional filters including UV systems such as the Steripen are being measured in Log 3-4 reduction i.e. Hundreds to thousands of times less effective. Filter lifetime seems to be impressive as well available in 10,000 and 20,000 liter capacity. For a family of 4 that would mean over 660/1320 gallons or 660/1320 days continuous use. (assuming 1 gallon of drinking water per person per day and depending on which filter used). When comparing the cost of the Lifesaver Jerry Can against other filtration systems such as the Katadyn Expedition or Endurance grade filters with the additional expense of a UV system that would be needed for the deactivation of viruses and even the water carrier itself i.e. the actual Jerry Can that would be required to transport it, then the Lifesaver Jerry Can is probably very cost effective considering the claimed performance. The Lifesaver Jerry Can will perform all three steps in one simple device. It also works excellent for car a or vehicle camping water filter and storage solution as well as a device which can be tucked away unused in the garage or basement ready for a domestic water emergency (domestic water supply availability is subject to electrical power outages in many areas). Enough theory, how does it work? Well, it works flawlessly! I have used this system a dozen or so times while SUV camping, hunting and even once during a water boil advisory when the power was out and there was no way for me to boil the water (thanks to hurricane Sandy) Another use I managed to find for this is a pressurized camp shower! Lifesaver makes a shower attachment and the dark blue color of the 20,000 liter unit is dark enough to heat the water significantly when left in the sun. You could imagine the relief of a semi hot, pressurized camp shower. Summary: The unit is effective against 99.9% of all bacteria, virus and even claimed to be effective against chemical and radiological hazards. There is an added benefit to a camp shower when desired. That is a major perk for me. In the space of one Jerry Can, which is how I already store water, I now have filtering capability. Simple to use. Fill, pump, drink. DURABLE, DURABLE, DURABLE! The cost is steep, but put it into perspective: 1 Jerry can ~ $50.00 1 Name brand filter ~ $150.00 1 Steripen ~ 100.00 ----------------------------- Total cost of 3 items needed to be as effective as one Lifesaver? $300.00 Total space/weight savings = priceless Overall this is a SOLID 5 STAR ITEM. I look forward to many years of use from this device and so far it has served quite handy.

I purchased the lifesaver Jerry can in August of last year and what can I say but awesome... I used it all through the summer on camping trips in tents, campers and my RV. It preformed flawlessly, whether filtering lake water or pond water or rain water it did it's job and kept me and up to 7 other people hydrated through some pretty long camping trips. After the season was over, I unpacked it, cleaned it thoroughly (as per the instructions) and put it in my kitchen for the winter. It was about mid winter when my wife decided to start buying bottled water (she is pregnant with our second child) well I had the bright idea to start filtering our tap water with the lifesaver and at just a cent or two per liter, man was that a great idea! Clean, pure drinking water made right there in our kitchen! We filter a gallon or two at a time and just top off the Jerry can each time we use it. I am telling you, this unit is amazing, if you keep the carbon filters changed every so often then you will have the best drinking water available. And talk about easy to use! My 2 year old girl thinks it's a game, she pumps it for us whenever we will let her and she fills the 1 gallon jugs that we keep in the fridge for drinking. How about that! I mean it is practically effortless and anyone can learn to use it properly in just about a minute. If you are looking for a great "base camp" water filter like I was when I found the life saver jerrycan, then this is the unit for you, and if you are looking for a family sized water filter for survivalism then this is the unit for you, but most importantly if you are looking for a quick, easy way to provide yourself and your family with clean, fresh, pure drinking water every day and in any situation... Then this is the unit for you!
