A New Device To Combat Crypto In Water
Did you ever wish you had a magic wand that you could just wave at bacteria, viruses and protozoa in water that would prevent nasty bugs like giardia and cryptosporidium from reproducing and spreading havoc?
Well, its now available at outdoor stores like REI for just $130. The New York Times gushes that:
The wand can clean up a quart of water that is clear — but could harbor stomach-wrecking microorganisms — in 90 seconds.
The five ounce device is called the SteriPen JourneyLCD. It has has a liquid-crystal display that shows a countdown during purification (48 seconds for 16 ounces, 90 seconds for 32 ounces) and a smiley face at the end to signal that the job is done.
