[QUOTE="aron, post: 113163, member: 551"] I use the sawyer squeeze and really like it. I carry a spare 3L bladder for the dirty water to fill from a creek/stream. You have two options with the sawyer squeeze or mini. You can hook the filter up in line with the dirty water and filter as you drink through the bladder or as I prefer to squeeze the dirty water through the filter directly into the clean bladder or nalgene. I put quick connect hose fittings on hose line of my clean water bladder so I can leave it right in the pack. I disconnect the bite valve, and connect a hose from the dirty with filter to the clean water hose. With this, you can also fill up the dirty water and filter later or as needed (gravity feed back at camp). Just be careful with some filters (Sawyer) as they can't freeze as the filter core will crack and basically won't filter the water. I don't have any experience with the above filters you were asking about. [COLOR="silver"][SIZE=1]- - - Updated - - -[/SIZE][/COLOR] Also make sure to carry purification tabs with as a backup.
