SteriPen Journey LCD UV Water Purifier System Hey everyone, Tony the Filter Doctor here.
Today we’re looking at the SteriPen Journey LCD Safe Water System.
Now this kit includes the Journey LCD UV Water Purifier with a carrying case and the appropriate
batteries, the FitsAll filter, and a 32 ounce Triton, 100% BPA free plastic wide mouth bottle.
The concept here is really very simple. The Journey LCD uses powerful germicidal UV light
to zap microorganisms and kill or render them completely harmless.
You simply turn the unit on and immerse it in water and the water sensor automatically
turns the unit on and starts the timer once it’s in water. Then the timer will automatically
shut the unit off, while the LCD display shows the timer progress and the battery condition.
Used correctly, the Journey LCD exceeds the US EPA Standard for microbiological water
purification, and it will effectively destroy 99.9999% of bacteria, 99.99% of viruses, and
99.9% of protozoa. The unit is very durable. It will perform
8,000, one liter doses of UV. If you purified four liters of water per day, every day, that
would last five years. Now, please note that pre-filtering is strongly
recommended and that’s because sediment gets in the way of the UV rays as they’re
trying to penetrate the water. The sediment particles block those UV rays. So if you have
a water source that is cloudy or turbid, that may have sediment in it, that’s why you
have the FitsAll filter in this kit. This unit is highly flexible and adaptable.
It fits regular water bottles as well as wide mouth bottles, and because it’s so flexible,
it can fit nearly any bottle size. Then once you’ve pre-filtered, the UV rays can effectively
penetrate and do their job. The entire unit is very compact and lightweight.
The SteriPen unit itself weighs a mere 4.5 ounces with the batteries. That’s less than
half of most filter pumps. This unit is perfect for anyone doing any
kind of outdoor activity; camping, hiking, canoeing, or if you’re traveling and you
know that the water where you’re going may be of questionable quality. You can zap those
microorganisms before they zap you. Again, this is the SteriPen Journey LCD Safe
Water System, and I’m your host Tony the Filter Doctor.
Thanks for watching.
