MSR Hydration Kit - For Use with Any MSR Bag

MSR Hydration Kit - For Use with Any MSR Bag

Rating for this product: 1 February 11, 2008

I bought this MSR hydration system over the Camel Back version partly because I was so impressed with a friend's MSR tent. I have to say that I loath this hydration system. When used with a backpack it does provide a drink of water just like you would expect. However, anytime it is not being used, such as when your pack is in a vehicle or laying on the ground at camp, it leaks very easily. There is an "off mode" available, but you can't tell if its off or on just by looking at it. When its on, be prepared to have as much as 3 liters of water seep into whatever environment your unattended pack is in. It is absolutely infuriating and especially inconvenient in cold weather. Buy the Camel Back version that does not spew water when you don't want it to.
