Gear Sneak Peek: Katadyn BeFree Water Filtration System
At the Summer Outdoor Retailer Show in Salt Lake city last month we saw a heap of innovative new products but the Katadyn BeFree Water Filtration System was one that truly stood out from the rest.
Katadyn has been in the portable water filter business for man years now and they have just recently designed a new product that lets you filter-and-go with ease. The Katadyn BeFree Water Filtration System is a .6L Hydrapak softflask with a built in EZ-Clean Membrane. Simply fill the flask from any lake, river or stream and then re-attache the lid, squeeze and drink. The hollow fibre filter is effective against microorganisms, bacteria, cysts and sediment thanks to its 0.1 micron filter. It has a 2L/min output so drinking from it is super easy. I was lucky enough to get a sample product to test this summer and after months of use I can attest to the products effectiveness.
Weighing only 58g the Katadyn BeFree Water Filtration System is a no-brainer to take on your next day hike or adventure.
