Has anyone used these in Africa? I'm headed to Malawi for three months and am trying to figure out what the best water purification method is. I'm assuming a flitered bottle thing, but I'd like to have these too. Could you double the two methods up? Would that kill me?

I have not been to Africa but these tablets are great, little taste and have used them with multiple water conditions. You don't want to chance a filter breaking and then not being able to get the parts. Be sure to get a shit ton of these things though because 1 tab only treats 1 liter. Also, use only clear bottles, because of the amount of sunlight if you are able to put the micropur in the bottle and then let it sit in direct sunlight you will get the UV exposure along with the chemical treatment. About 5-6 hours in the sun will help as well. You can always double up on filter and chem treatment, can't hurt. Hope this helps, good luck in Africa.
