I used the bottle for 3 months almost exclusively whilst in India, filling up from stand pipes, hotel bathrooms and on a couple of occasions from mountain streams. There were two of us using the bottle and this was without any ill effects on either of us for the whole time we were in India. At one point as we were walking past a beach bungalow I asked the occupant (a German lady) if I could fill up my bottle from her tap. She couldn’t believe we were going to drink from the bottle… she took a photo and was going to buy one on her return home. This is the best thing to happen to independent travellers since the Internet. Whether I’m walking in the Northumberland hills or camel trekking in northern India this little water bottle will always be with me. An absolute fantastic and totally indispensable piece of kit for the discerning traveller
