In light of recent news regarding the aftermath of the Japan earthquake, we have talked a lot about emergency water purification. Katadyn manufactures a variety of emergency water filters, and this weekend we are offering the Katadyn MyBottle Water Purifiers, in blue or green, for only 34.95 ($15 off!)

The Katadyn MyBottle is the only personal water bottle purifier on the water filter market that is registered with the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Katadyn water filters are often used by the U.S. military, international militaries, NATO and relief organizations during environmental disasters when access to clean water is scarce. The MyBottle can be dipped directly into lakes, rivers, streams and other freshwater sources, and removes all viruses, bacteria, cysts and other impurities. The carbon cartridge also reduces the bad taste and odor of chemicals, making treated water taste even better. This bottle can protect you from waterborne illness while on your next camping trip, or even during a visit to a foreign country where the tap water is unsafe. It filters up to 26 gallons of water and uses combination Virustat filter and cyst filter technology.

Replacement Katadyn filter cartridges can be purchased at FiltersFast, but go ahead and order your Katadyn water filter bottle today, as this special offer ends Sunday at midnight.
