[@JohanGartner]

Very good and informative video dan! I use the regular Sawyer and I'm very happy with that! Take care

[@ShastaBubba]

Thanks Johan! Is the regular-size Sawyer less of a 'squeeze?' Or do you let gravity do the work?

[@JohanGartner]

@@ShastaBubba you can drink straight from it, that works fine! But I use to squeeze it and the flow is excellent so far after maby 200 liters.

[@trekkingdoctor5854]

Excellent info , thank you 😊

[@ShastaBubba]

Glad it was helpful!

[@joeyt684]

Any experience with Hydroblu filters?
