Been researching WATER PURIFICATION straws....
and it seems that although LifeStraw is cheaper and works great, it doesn't kill viruses. NDur's kills viruses, but costs more than LifeStraw - is it worth the money??

See LifeStraw vs. NDur Straw (I'm looking at www. Survivor's supply .com) for the NDur version. Googled LifeStraw and saw them for $20.00 at a gun show.

Anyone have thoughts?

Don't know if this makes much of a difference, but Marine bases stock the NDuR straw, not the lifestraw. Lifestraw claims a smaller particulate filter, but the NDuR wins out IMHO due to it's ability to remove virus, bacteria, and chemicals at LOG 6.

Keep a gallon of bleach with you and forget the straws. 4 drops bleach per gallon of water , let sit for 1 hour before drinking.

I have two water filters one is the NDuR survival straw - [link to www.emergencyoutdoors.com]

And the Katadyn Pocket - [link to www.amazon.com]

The NDuR survival straw goes in my bug out bag and the Katadyn Pocket is at my Bug Out Location

What if you have to bug out? Are you going to carry gallons sand gallons of water with you? Didn't think so.

Get a few LifeStraws OP. Perfect for a BOB
