This handheld water purifier will change the way backpackers, travelers, campers, survivalists, and activists think about sanitizing water. Our mission is to serve the water needs of mankind, in this case through the provision of personal water purification. The H2gO Purifier was designed to provide a sustainable water treatment solution to those who need it most – the people in developing nations with no access to safe water. The design meets the extreme needs in developing nations, both physical and financial. The product is also suitable for missionaries, Peace Corps volunteers, first responders, disaster relief, emergency kits, and the military. However, our dream is to provide cost-effective and sustainable water treatment to the people with no access to safe water. We set out to create the world’s best personal water purifier – the smallest, easiest, and most cost-effective water treatment solution for both developed and developing nations. This device weighs only 3.1 ounces (88 grams), fits in your pocket, and is very simple and easy to use. It will treat anywhere from 1 quart (1 liter) up to 5 gallons (20 liters) of water with just a couple button clicks and no pumping or stirring required. It keeps stored water safe to drink with a lifetime capacity of over 40,000 gallons (150,000 liters). It is inexpensive to purchase and virtually free to operate, with no maintenance, no spare parts, and no consumables (other than common salt), making it truly sustainable.
