Water Purification
I'm looking for a water purification system for a long trip. Something which kills pathogens ideally. I'm travelling on four wheels so space isn't the limiting factor (to a point) and I'm willing to invest in a decent system. Is there any system which requires no replacement cartridges etc? How good are UV irradiation techniques?
My ideal solution would be to filter water through a gauze or handkerchief into an intermediate container, then purify it with something like the steripen . I should think it would be quite simple to rig up a covertor to run it off a 12v car battery (takes 4 batteries or 6v).
It doen't look to robust though, so a more practical large-scale purifier would be better
Thanks for any info
Dan
