SteriPEN Traveller Water Purifier is a hand held water purifier that uses ultraviolet light to purify up to 1 liter (32oz) of water at a time. There are no chemicals to taste or smell, no pumping or test strips, and no setup or clean up involved!
The SteriPEN utilizes C Wavelength UV (ultraviolet light). UV-C light is short wave light, between x-rays and visible light wavelengths, which destroy the DNA of microbes in seconds. Its like a singer that can break glass with their voice. Without functional DNA, microbes can't reproduce or make you sick.
The SteriPEN Traveller can accomplish in 90 seconds what chemicals take up to 4 hours to complete.
Fast (48 seconds for 16 ounces), light (under 110g/4 oz), easy and effective. Perfect for hikers and campers who value powerful products in small packages with no loss of effectiveness. The Traveller is especially effective against common protozoa like Cryptosporidium and comes complete with 2 disposable batteries, a nylon case and users' guide.
Battery type: CR123A (single use) or RCR123A (rechargeable)
