Go Water Filter Bottle

G'day Crystal,

The Go Water Filter Bottle won't filter out chemicals or heavy metals, however, the Go 2 Stage Water Filter Bottle has a carbon filter that will reduce chlorine, pesticides, herbicides and bad odour from your water.

G'day Mary,

I've just checked the specifications from Lifestraw and they recommend usage between 1 and 60 degrees Celsius. So if the temperature is likely to be zero or below where you're headed then the temperature might cause damage to the filter. The altitude alone shouldn't cause too many issues.

G'day Traill,

The Go Water Filter Bottle has a 0.2 Micron filter so while it can filter out bacteria and protozoa it isn't guaranteed to filter out viruses. Most viruses are 0.01 - 0.3 microns in diameter so might slip through. To be 100% sure you'd need to boil, treat with a UV purifier, treat with Katadyn tablets, or use a virus approved filter like the MSR Guardian Water Purifier.

G'day Lesley,

Yeah, you certainly can use water purification tablets in conjunction with your Lifestraw bottle. It's always a great idea to double up like this if you're really uncertain about the water quality. Better safe than sorry! 

G'day Alicia,

You can definitely use a Camelbak bottle with the Go Filter Lid and Straw. It will fit in the 750mL Eddy or Chute bottle, but to give the filter plenty of space at the bottom I would recommend going for the 1L size.

G'day Nathan,

You'll get around 1000L from the filter in the Go Water Filter Bottle. This might vary a little depending on the quality of the water you're filtering through it. 

G'day Dan,

I've just double checked with our hydration guru, Leece, and can confirm that you can put a LifeStraw 2 Stage water filter into your LifeStraw Go Water Filter Bottle.
