Katadyn Micropur Purification Tablets - 30 pack

Micropur MP1 Tablets

By Ranked #596 - Trail Running Hydration July 21, 2003

Used it for the first time in N.C. Smoky Mts. on 4th of July weekend. I don't recommend using one tablet per 32 oz. Nalgene bottle (as it says in the instructions). This caused a very light chemical taste (not iodine, but more like chlorine). When I used a full liter of water (as it also says in the instructions), the difference was enough to cause a significant improvement. I must say that the water flavor was quite good. No stomach problems whatsoever after extensive 4 day use. I never used iodine tablets. I've always been a pump purifier guy, but if weight and convenience are a factor, I am taking these tablets on my next trip!

Are you aware that a liter and 32 oz (a quart) are basically equivalent quantities of water?
