What makes this the “Most advanced personal water filter available today”? I have a Sawyer Mini which is the same weight and about half the length; filters out more bacteria, protozoa, and dirt; filters 2-3 times faster; and is good for a hundred times as much total water filtering (100000L). It will also work as an inline filter on a backpack reservoir.
