2003 model

Katadyn Pocket Water Microfilter

Katadyn Pocket Water Microfilter

Rating for this product: 5 September 8, 2003

It seems the 2003 model of the pocket filter no longer comes with a brush, but is supplied with two green scratch pads. It also comes with a tube of silicon grease and a spare small "O" ring. The bottom of the filter is now flat so that it can be firmly placed on the ground or other surface without trying to balance it on a narrow bottom plate. Another improvement is in the output nozzle. It screws into the top plate and will allow a tube to be run to the container. A metel clip is provided to secure the end of the tube to the lip of a container so it will not "flop around" during pumping. Lastly, the handle has been re-engineered into a mushroom shape which allows much more comfort while pumping. No more "T" handle!
At 13,000 gallons capacity per filter, the average owner will never see the day when it must be replaced, unless it is broken. The unit is built to last a lifetime, and comes with a lifetime warrenty, but weighs in at 20 oz.
As an active duty U.S. Marine, this is the model of choice for uncompromising performance, durability, and maintainability in a field environment.
