    As you know, the 06 takes a heck of lot of pumping but does produce
    pure water. I would not be without one in my abandon ship bag.
    That being said, at $65 this seems like pretty cheap back up. I
    would like to see some test results though. I'll contact the company
    for such unless you ready have that?

    Thanks for bringing this to our attention,
