Tech Tools: LifeStraw Go

From €40

The original LifeStraw was a groundbreaking invention that allowed you to turn water sources of dubious origin into clean, bacteria free refreshment. Now the company has taken it one step further and brought out a water bottle that uses the same technology.

The LifeStraw Go is a BPA free bottle that will turn almost anything – including a murky puddle – into clean water. it claims to filter out "99.9999 per cent of water-borne bacteria", and has all the modern conveniences you're used to, such as a top bite valve to prevent spills.
