It has been with me for rock climbing, via ferrata, hiking and more. I like it because it is light, easy to use and maintain. I liked the one litre version enough to get a smaller 600ml version for conferences and work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recently I noticed that the mouth of both bottles seems slightly discouloured. I don&#8217;t know whether they&#8217;re chipped or whether it&#8217;s oxydation from sitting around for so many months during the pandemic. I will probably still use them, once the world decides that Zero-Covid is the right strategy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My other solution was a 750ml camelbak waterbottle and I find that this is a good solution too. I found that it was too large for home use, and everyday use so I&#8217;m now playing with a 600 ml water bottle and I prefer this form factor. It&#8217;s better for carrying on daily walks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When I was studying about water filtering solutions I often came across the mention of nalgene bottles and after over a year of hearing about them, but having no curiousity in them I bought one a few days ago. I like that it has a graduated system on the side although I don&#8217;t usually need to ration water. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The wide mouth and it&#8217;s cap are suboptimal for drinking, especially if you&#8217;re walking. The advantage of nalgene wide mouths is that they helped to set the standard, at least according to one or two articles I read. This means that you can take most camelbak tops and put it on a nalgene bottle and vice versa. This increases drinking comfort. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">There is no need to buy specialist tools or brushes, or cleaning tablettes etc. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p><span class=\"span-reading-time rt-reading-time\" style=\"display: block;\"><span class=\"rt-label rt-prefix\">Reading Time: <\/span> <span class=\"rt-time\"> &lt; 1<\/span> <span class=\"rt-label rt-postfix\">minute<\/span><\/span>I often hiked with a Sigg one litre water bottle and it has served me well.
