I love when an inventor really thinks when designing a product, how the product is going to be used, knows the topic (e.g. hikes for this particular product) and knows the shortcomings of competing products. Great job!

Is the connect cap available separately, if we want to use it with an older style filter?

[@Platyhydration]

The connect cap is compatible with all QuickDraws! We do not currently have this part available to send out of our Repair Shop, but we should soon!
