[@andersadler]

I get very annoyed with companies that try to sell their products with misleading information. The bottle (500ml PureVis) holds 500ml, but if you fill it with exactly that volume, you won't be able to put the cap on. And if you read the manual you will see the text "Fill with clear water up to the indicator line". And that line is about 10mm above the Larq logo on the bottle. Yes, the line that lies far below the bottleneck. So the volume you can fill the bottle and get it working is around 370ml (which is 26% less than the stated 500ml). They never tell any buyer that, so most users are probably using this bottle incorrectly...

[@asantesamuel13]

Wow, thanks for that info. That is very dishonest of them!

[@ChineseSe7en]

So where is it misleading?

[@DanielReibold]

@@ChineseSe7enseriously? it advertises 500ml but holds 370ml how’s that not misleading 🤦🏻‍♂️

Best vid I’ve seen so far on the bottle.Thanks for keeping it short but super informative!

[@ConnectTheWatts]

Happy to hear it was helpful!

[@KC-ki6ez]

Won’t bacteria grow on the area you drink from? And does the UV light only eradicate bacteria inside the water bottle?

[@TooManyHorrorMovies]

Yes. This is an important point...it only cleans the water.

[@loujeanadams2500]

I own both the 25oz and the 32oz bottles. I like knowing that they "clean" themselves, but I have to admit, I just love drinking out of the insulated metal bottles (they stay cold FOREVER!), and despite their self cleaning ability, I'm not the greatest housekeeper, but I'm really big on cleanliness with my kitchen and anything I'm going to eat or drink, so I still give them a regular washout myself with antibacterial dish soap.

[@thatguyalex2835]

I find our technological progress fascinating, and enjoy science, engineering and history/human culture. These UV bottles can clean themselves, as long as the water inside isn't from a lake. :) When I was 13 or so, I thought of an idea of a water bottle that could use a low power UV tube light to clean germs from spit backwash and stuff. Then, 5 years later in the late 2010s, I looked up if a bottle has been invented, and apparently LARQ did it back in 2017. So, an idea that I had 9-10 years ago, came into fruition by another company. I commend LARQ for their efforts, a small newcomer business, though the bottle costs $100. Lol... Whew, that is pricey. Guess I'll have to wash my regular bottle by hand for a few more years ;)

[@MrMusic55123]

it's just a scam, that UV light doesn't kill bacteria

[@tymesmr9644]

I have this bottle but inside the cap inside ended up being disgusting with the paint peeling off. Got a replacement last year and now it’s starting again. It’s really not worth buying if this rubbish keeps happening.

[@Arssn.]

Did it happen again or nah

[@dhassy947]

Yes it’s happened again after my warranty ran out. Such a useless product if the material for the cap keeps getting worn out easily.

Did you put anything else but water in this larq bottle?

[@SuperTrajce10]

I wonder if it removes the smell of protein shake after couple of times, because thats the only reason i would buy. My usual shakers smell disgusting after couple of drinks even after being washed in the dishwasher.

[@LaserPeow]

boil hot water, put in a bit of soap, pour in the hot water, let it stay for 30 mins. Wash and voila no smell

[@cdoe3395]

Tap water is treated with chlorine and flouride to treat and kill bacteria etc. That being said water filters are designed to filter out heavy metals and this already filtration tech will also kill bacteria aswell. So what is the parts per million filtration rating on this bottle? Brita is 6PPM and Zero water filter is 0 PPm why doesnt anyone talk about metal ppm ratings with this bottle? Seems like a bit of a scam tbh

[@jayj.2956]

the bottle he is reviewing is the purifier, not the filtration bottle

[@jonathantylersewell1]

bro smell your bottle water after using it smells like your breath or something funky even if you put new water that has chlorine your saliva your mouth can get into your water bottle then making it throw it away yes you can clean dish washer it but im to lazy for that and hate cleaning water bottle then water taste like soap

[@pozitivczmusic]

Does it get rid of fluoride or no????

[@nothingspecial4339]

is it really that hard to swish and shake your water bottle with soap and water every couple days?

[@danilo9642]

You spend more on bottle water a year and this is an investment plus you can filter any water even your toilet and drink it

[@matro2]

It's about pure water not only a clean bottle.

[@UrdnotAkongo]

Did you even watch the video before you commented? LOL because cleaning your bottle SURE does also clean and purify the water you put in it? Durrr

[@nikkis8102]

Yes, it really is something extra to think about. I already have enough on my plate & I drink water all day everyday

[@RonSavage01]

Don't you still have to clean the part that your lips touch?

[@user-uq1kz5gi8x]

No sir

[@ripsqad8493]

I bought a larq bottle so that I can use it in Indonesia filling it up with their local bottled water. I think buying it to use for tap water is great but there are other materials in tap water like metals from the pipes that cannot be controlled through UV light sanitation.

[@kingspina1781]

No matter where you get your water, it still comes from pipe.

[@storm1110]

​@@kingspina1781 not if you collect from a free flowing river haha

[@A.O.A.]

​@@kingspina1781the issue is not pipes but certain older lead/cadmium pipes. These pose health risk. New factories use non degrading pipes. They also get replaced regularly hence why bottled water is very safe.

[@scareqro6165]

There’s currently alive and dead bacteria in your mouth rn, it’s not a big deal.

[@pkprince14]

If you keep purifying it enough, the bacteria will get killed off before they have a chance to reproduce. So yes, you would drink the dead bacteria, but it wouldn't be very much.

[@raywang2061]

When you boil your water where does the bacteria go?

[@shorta96]

Just know that no matter how great it works it doesn't matter because they oversold themselves on Shark Tank and supply chain problems don't begin to describe their problem. You will also wait weeks for a customer service response. I purchased mine in May and didn't receive for 6 months. My first filter needed replacement, I've now been waiting on a replacement filter for 1.5 months. I strongly advise you to look anywhere else for a product you can actually use.

[@nikolajboehnel240]

I got mine just three days after purchasing it guess they resolved the problem

[@jenesaispas_]

how you tested it on muddy water?

[@Stephen981cs]

I imagine it’s gonna kill bacteria but not remove the dirt and mud from the water. It’s a self cleaning bottle but not a build in water filter.

[@well.thy.one.]

Lol

[@Kim-en9gp]

Its meant to kill bacteria. Not filter it.

[@Robert-sy9ji]

If your out in the woods and you wanted drinking water from a stream, you would want a good water filter for the water first(to remove particulates). Then fill your Larq bottle from that filtered water and cleanse the bacteria and viral contaminates that are left.

[@ClihtYeastwood]

There’s no amount of ecoli great or small that is healthy lmfao.

[@ClihtYeastwood]

House hold tap water has up to 7% chlorine and bleach in it to kill bacteria. This is using simply uv light, which would also diminish the bleach and chlorine in your water. Tap water should really be filtered one way or another, and this way is very, very convenient and consistent.

[@dancingdivazriooo]

Well yeah, you can push the sterilizing button when you’re done drinking the water

[@IslamicTalksPodcast]

I’m not buying it as it doesn’t have USB-C for a “Premium” bottle

[@IslamicTalksPodcast]

@Dream means I'll have to have an extra wire rather than the universal standard one.

[@jeanchristophebasile4900]

@Dream Seriously??? I hope you are joking. if you cannot see the advantage of having a single cable for all your devices. I would give you that it only needs charging once a month so you can generally travel without its cable (micro usb ) lack of usb-c is also a deal breaker even if the technology here did work which is far from proven...
