Solar Charging Water Purifier:SteriPEN


The energy of the sun is often under used. We do not often realize how we can use it in varied ways. The way we can use this amazing and almost infinite renewable resource is almost endless. Now we have a tiny little gadget for the clean freaks and even for those bothered about sanitation and purity of water while on a long journey or a camping trip. This little solar powered magical device can help you stay away from those deadly water borne diseases.

This little gizmo is for world travelers with doubts about the local water. Just swish this thermometer-like device inside a container of H2O and presto - drinkable water with no after taste. And the solar charging case keeps it charged and ready to operate.
The SteriPEN system uses UV light rays instead of chemicals to purify water for drinking by destroying protozoa (including Giardia and Cryptosporidium), bacteria and even viruses. Just press a button and gently agitate the water with a quick stir.
It basically Purifies 16 fl. oz. of water (cold or warm) in less than a minute. It fits perfectly in your shirt pocket and you can almost use it anywhere. Since it is powered by the sun you will not have to worry about how you are going to carry this around and keep it working. So take purity in your pocket across the planet.
