Alter Ego: The Personal Water Filtration Bottle

Over the years we’ve written about quite a few water filtration systems, including home/office units and small on the go units. The small portable water filters are great for people that enjoy the outdoors and adventures, they eliminate the need for carrying water in the backpack, which could get heavy depending on how long one plans on staying out in the wild.

Today we’d like to introduce you to a Canadian company called Aquaovo and their Alter Ego personal water filtration bottles. The pair of bottles is called Alter Ego Duo and consists of the Outdoor and Globetrotter models (each sold separately).
