SteriPEN Traveler

The only result of the tough guy’s “if-they-can-drink-it-so-can-I” mentality is a crash course on Nepali toilets.  If SteriPEN sold a hip holster for round-the-clock access, we’d recommend that too—that’s how much you’ll use it.  Until then, find comfort in the fact that Traveler is small enough to fit in your pocket or daypack.  Other options just don’t make sense when even Nepal’s bottled water can make you sick.  Do your liver a favor and go easy on chemical purifiers.  In 90 seconds—a fraction of the time that boiling takes—the Traveler’s UV light purifies an entire liter. Not to mention, it can do that 3,000 times before the lamp burns out.
