Light but leaky.

By J. Douglas Ranked #234 - Water Treatment October 9, 2006

I had planned to take this on an overnight trip, but the mosquitoes convinced me otherwise. Which is fortunate, because I discovered the bite valve had a slow "drip, drip, drip" both in the closed and open position. The connecting hose also had a slow leak. Perhaps I did something wrong, or am just cursed by things that go drip in the night. (I once had a hydration bladder leak form a nice puddle inside my tent). I also found it difficult to screw the lid on and off. Couldn't imagine trying that with gloves on. I'm considering returning it for another brand or just going back to the good old Nalgene bottle.
