On shorter lightweight expeditions, carry your essential H2O supplies in the Watercell X 6L carrier from Sea to Summit.
This durable and functional design is constructed from abrasion-resistant 400D nylon fabric and has a lining made from BPA and PVC-free food-grade TPU. It’s got a 3D shape, with RF welded seams for durability and an internal baffle which makes it easy to fill, hang and drain. Add water through the wide mouth opening, control the flow from the multi-function cap, and attach the showerhead for outback rinsing.
Whether you’re bikepacking, hiking or kayaking – the 6L Watercell X from Sea to Summit is the ultimate functional water carrier you need.
Hello can you get the replacement caps with the shower adapter. I have a 6 litre and would like the shower adapter cap.
G'day Adam,
We dont carry any spare parts for the Watercells, but yu may be able to grab one from Sea to Summit directly.
I have a Platypus GravityWorks filter that comes with an adapter for a 1L Nalgene bottle. What is the screw lid on this watercell like, is it compatible? Would make filtering water in to it very awkward if not.
G'day Paul,
Whilst we haven't tried out a wide-mouth Nalgene and Watercell combination in person, we can confirm that both have a 63mm thread size which is generally universal - also the same as the MSR Dromedary water systems, for example. Based on this info we're pretty confident you won't have issues.
Can this be carried with less then the 6L volume? Will it effect the performance if its not full?
G'day Nicole,
Ofcourse. Just like with and soft water bladder, you can carry as much or as little water as you like.
This product comes with a string plastic/synthetic odorous that flavours the water immediately. I have tried soaking overnight with baking soda but it didn't make a difference. The water is completely unpalatable. Is there any way to remove the odour?
G'day Jovan,
We've had this question once before on a different size Watercell.
I'll post our response below:
"There's a few of us in the office with these Watercell X bladders, and only one of us has had issues with taste.
Ben (who has had the taste issues) uses normal tap water, whereas the rest of us use filtered water.
We have pondered whether or not the added chemicals in the tap water somehow interact with the Watercell lining. No other explanation really!
Ben has had some success cleaning the bladders out with bicarb and lemon juice, which appears to have remedied the situation.
Hope that helps!"
In addition to that, we've had these Watercells for a fair while now and it seems that the taste/smell only affects a handful of people. It may come down to water type or sensitivities, but all feedback reports that this does go away with time.
