Out in the field, we mainly used the shower unit for irrigating wounds and cleaning large scrapes and gouges along with removing any irritating agents. Pure sterile water !!
We still boiled water in large units for showers.
Looks like a great addition to any vehicle load out.
Thanks for the video
Great video. You answered a question I had about freezing the filter and gave me a way to test it. Thanks!
Awesome Review. Hope to see more vids coming. It's been awhile.
After watching your review, I would agree with you about the shower pressure; however, I am thinking it would be nice to use when rinsing off dishes and such. Hopefully their engineers will work on that improvement.
Thorough review, nicely presented. I saw another guy review it on a qell known channel, but your evaluation was en pointe, you showed us the filter and focused on all aspects. Great work. One criticism I would like to make is that you never said where it's manufactured. I believe its British made/ developed.
Thank you for the review and video, definitely see myself getting one and telling friends. Amazing to think of the engineering of super clean water when needed .
Any time!
best review video on this that i have seen, thanks a lot
Thanks
Thank you Sir
I guess faster flow means it wouldn’t have time to filter properly? Great review, thanks, think this system is perfect for making wild water safe, for drinking and dishes etc. Well worth the investment.
For showering think I’d just use that filtered water in a bucket with a battery shower pump like a Liberrway.
Agreed
Question? Why don't life savor creat a thermal blanket wrap for the cans for winter. Something fitted. Like the ballistic nylon outside thermal insulated inside. I have a dometic refrigerator and I purchased the thermal wrap for it. Neat thing is. If it's cold it will hold the cold in. If it's warm it stays warm. Basically it keeps the product from having abrupt temperature changes. Which is nice
I was all in until I saw the price. I've been vanlife traveling since 2014 and I can testify the weed sprayer with a sink sprayer is still the best showering tool.
The price is competitive with filters of that quality + a 5 gallon water rotopax. It isn’t crazy. What do you use to filter water when you are boondocking?
It's not even that expensive. I guess I value life more than a few hundred bucks.
This is not a mere filter. This is a purifier, meaning it will filter out viruses. That's what makes it expensive, but worth it. MSR sells a pump purifier for about $400. It will purify a liter in about 1 minute. So, comparatively this is a good price.
Pressure loss with the shower attachment is from the filter
Excellent review sir! I felt compelled to subscribe :)
Awesome, thank you!
@@WanderingBeast You're welcome :)
Thanks from Sweden 😀🙏
THANKS !! I used to haul 20 GALLONS in to remote areas down in AZ. Now, after watching some one I've been watching for awhile I'll been getting THIS...STAY WELL, TAKE CARE..
Awesome, thanks. Let me know what you think
Thanks for the review Cody, currently evaluating filtering options for the van. I do like idea of this on, but it looks problematic to fill from a shallow water source?
Jason
The inlet is pretty close to the side wall. Welcome to take a look. I haven't been able to get a filter replacement for it
Cut the top out of a smart water bottle and use that as a scoop to fill your Jerry can. Or make a baler out of a 2 quart milk bottle and use that to fill the Jerry can.
What rate of flow should we expect?
Yours looks quite good. Ours seemed ok at home after priming and pumping.
However after a week of travelling only using drinking water taps to fill up ours only seems to trickle out, like a tinkle 😢

AWESOME VIDEO .......GREAT INFO ( THANKS ) :)) !!!!!
Thanks
How well does the jerry dispense the water if it's in a vertical position? The way it would sit in my jerry can holder would be upright and not easy to rotate.
I thought that blowing All liquid out before storing the filter would be a good idea to prevent freezing, but lifesaver says to keep the filter moist at All times
I just got one and it seems bulged out when its on the side and really doesn't sit flat. I was trying to see if yours did that too and when you are demonstrating the shower yours doesn't seem to sit flat either. Its not a super big deal, but do you notice that too or did I get a bad one?
Apparently this provides enough water for a family of four for six years?
No after using the filter once , you have to change the filter cartridge in 3 years. So you would need a second cartiridge. One cartridge can filter 20.000 Liter, so if you need more water within 3 years you will need more then 2 cartridges
I know this is an older video and you may not see this comment but if you do what did you use to harness that to your back? Would you be able to provide a link for it? Or was that a harness you pieced together yourself?

When can you make more Wildland Fire vids ?
What size is the o-ring for the end of that jerry can tap? There was not an o-ring in my hose packet. Thanks.
not sure, but they have great customer service
You said that the amount one filter can do is 2500 gallons. BUT, on the LifeSaver website it says: "Filter Capacity: 5282 Gallons". Is the website not accurate when it says it can filter over 5000 gallons?
Make it work for you. If you ever had to shower 🚿 in the field aka military you would be glad to have it. I just got a hydroblu 4 gallon can.
I have one of these-I just got it.Do you have to keep it full all the time for filter life?Ive heard this,but am not sure of its source
Yes, in fact I recently ruined a filter, cause I took it out so it wouldn't freeze and did not put enough water in the ziplock bag, so it dried up and now won't flow water, so I'll need to order another filter unfortunately
@@WanderingBeast I’ve had one for about a month. It worked great the first couple of uses but then the water just stopped flowing properly. I emailed customer support and they sent me a new filter. I installed it and it worked properly for about 4 seconds then went right back to barely flowing. When I unscrew the cap there’s a ton of air pressure released. Not really sure what the issue is, it’s never had less than a half a jug of water in it.
This is the one big downside to this system. Given that it had to stay wet, but can't freeze, makes it higher maintenance than I would like it to be.
Is this the 20,000 u version? I’m in between the 10,000 and 20,000. Looking to purchase for occasional camping trips and for emergency preparedness. Which would you recommend?
yes
Hey I use of these mounted in a Scout Kenai camper. I will often need to refill it from another Jerry can. Do you have some super slick hack that makes that easy? Or do I just hunt down a nice funnel :)
I would try a super siphon hose.
@@WanderingBeast ha, genius. no clue those existed. so cool. thank you!
where did you get your backpack.... love it

@@WanderingBeast mystery ranch which model got name? not too many M.R product here in hong kong gotta search for it on ebay or something I have been using lifersaver jerry can and cube since 2015 for all my camping trip it a great product
@@kennethcampingdiary1976 it's the N.I.C.E frame with the load carrier
@@WanderingBeast thanks dude gonna get it for Christmas lol
I don’t want another one for another couple of months
After this video I bought one.
Can I send back it back to Biden now ?
DID’t last. Made me disabled after given £200
Life saver was water not that tank 😅
Bought one for £200 when my van was new.
A 20L tin Jerry can was around £20
Used this for couple of month
now, didn’t last
now I will try to fit these filter and pump on a tin Jerry can.
recently started to pump every time I need to drink, because it couldn’t keep it pressured air in, started leaking from lids when pressured air kept inside.
I started using it without pressure and pump every time I need water, than take out pressure again. I got used to that.
Two days ago on right the side I had 3 little holes, when it was standing alone on it’s place, every time I pressure there is shower on the right side towards my sugar cup
from the plastics melting band.
And there was no pressure kept in during last weeks of its life
Going into to bin ?
Thanks. I carry around
What back pack is that?
Mystery ranch NICE Load sling
Missing stainless steal pumps .
where does the magic happen?
Inside that cartridge filter where the water comes out.
Their customer service is horrible Im missing parts that were not put in the box before it was shipped factory sealed and now they’re giving me all kinds of hassle about getting those parts buyer beware
Do you have to pump it to filter the water?
Yes
can we use this for sea salt water ?
No
MAYBE SMALLER HOLES IN THE SPRAY HEAD IT HELP WITH PRESSURE 🤔 THANK YOU 🙏
BE SAFE ! HAVE FUN ! ENJOYED 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨 🍨
Good idea
It's $300, dude. It's a water bottle.......for $300. Is this Bizarro World?
320 buckaroos, damn son. Fuck me.
I was thinking 50 max. My god.
I have a work around solution for the shower thing would love to show you wonder if you have Facebook😁
