The iStraw water filter

by David Allen on Wednesday, July 4th, 2007

This is really great, at last a water filter that does not need tablets, chemicals or anything else, and it’s a straw that actually turns untreated water into good drinking water with no hassle.

These devices are great for people who wish to travel and they cannot be sure of the quality of the water, or even in places where there has been a flood or some other natural disaster. When people travel, around 50% report some sort of sickness.
