5.0 out of 5 stars. SteriPEn mini water purifierVerified Buyer Reviewed by Jim from AR on Sunday, February 1, 2015Very compact. A lot easy to carry than a water filter. Saves a lot of pack room. The real proof of effectiveness comes after you purify some water and then don't get sick!!

4.0 out of 5 stars. Didn't get sick...Verified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from Colorado on Monday, September 15, 2014We didn't get sick, so it either works or we have strong stomachs. It is easy to use, but a tad finicky...so don't be afraid to zap the water a second time. The battery is a draw back and it didn't come with a carrying case/pouch. That said, well worth the money for a backpacker.

5.0 out of 5 stars. Lightweight and effectiveVerified Buyer Reviewed by nurse hiker from Wyoming on Monday, August 11, 20142 companions and myself used this pen on an overnight backpack trip in the Tetons. It was light and easy to use. I assume it was effective. We did not get sick.

5.0 out of 5 stars. SteriPENVerified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from California on Friday, July 25, 2014This was a pretty good price for a good product. We just took it on a backpacking trip about a week ago. Given that is was in N. America, virus's really aren't a big worry, so it was just for additional peace of mind. We used the Sawyer Squeeze filter first to filter a liter bottle of water, then used the SteriPEN in that filtered water for additional purification. The filter would have probably been enough to keep the water safe. The SteriPEN goes above and beyond the filter in that it takes care of virus's that the filter can't get, though, like I said, those really aren't much of a worry in N. America. The SteriPEN functioned just fine. We ended up treating just about 2+ gallons of water for the 3-day weekend trip for two people, and then filled both our 3L CamelBak bladders with more treated water for the hike back out, so maybe about 4 gallons of water total. You just press the button once (for 1L, twice for 1/2L) with the wand in the water, watch the blue/purple light come on, and stir it around (keep the wand covered in water) until the light turns off in the wand. The little LED light on the handle shows green to tell you it was successfully treated, or red if you need to try again. There's a light code key in the instructions. Of course I really have no idea whether or not there were really any virus's in there or not to begin with, so I can't really tell you whether it gave us added protection or not, but I know it felt good to know that, not only did we filter out what we could, but then purified it additionally after that. Worth the price, especially if you travel out of the country - I wouldn't go without this little device.

4.0 out of 5 stars. Peace of mind gear itemVerified Buyer Reviewed by Anonymous from Taos, NM on Saturday, July 19, 2014I don't usually rate items without field testing first, but this item comes with good reviews from around the internet. It is also very light and does not take up much room in my sling pack. I make trips down into the Rio Grande Gorge near my home in Taos where most hikes down to the river are about 800' elevation gain/loss over a mile and a half and it's a long, tough day of fishing and hiking. Finally, the purifier could be a life saver if dehydration becomes severe.
