Steripen using Jetboil ?

[lifeisgoodsteve]

Hi All,

Anyone using your jetboil or equivalent to purify water with the steripen?

I've been brining a separate nalgene then pouring it into my bladder, but would be nice to save the space in the pack.

Thx

Don’t understand. You want to use a jetboil as well as a steripen? Doesn’t either of those method alone work?

Sounds like belt and suspenders to me.

Are you talking about using the jetboil cup as the vessel to hold the water while using the Steripen?

I bought a Steripen Adventurer back in 2007 and have used it on and off since then. Mostly off because I have the early Steripen that had problems with drawing...

Perfect, thanks for the link!!

Since I'll have my jetboil with me anyways, going to try it vs. carrying a separate nalgene in addition to the bladder.

I had this weird feeling that a metal container was potentially a problem but that wasn't from any preconceived, or direct knowledge. good luck in your search.
