Acquapura Personal Filter Straw

I received this Filter Straw in exchange for my honest review. I am happy to have this device for emergencies. I live on the Island, the drinking water is pumped from the mainland. Drinking water is a scarce resource here. We've had situations throughout the years when we had no running water for days. I feel much better knowing that I have this device in my emergency pack. My husband is a prepper at heart, so he was excited about this product as well. I contacted the company and asked if it will convert salt water to drinking water, and apparently it won't. I understand it's a whole different process. We do get plenty of rain water and I'm sure I'd be very comfortable using this straw for rain water. We go offshore on the boat and have an emergency/survival kit there, I am going to add this device to our other supplies. I would also recommend it to anyone who goes hiking to have it in their bag. I was very happy to know that it has 3 year shelf life and 1 one year from the time of first use. This is a small price to pay for a peace of mind. It's like insurance, you have to have it, but hope you never have to use it. I'm glad I have it, and I hope I'll never have to use it. #acquapura
