SteriPEN is the Eco-Conscious Choice for Clean Water |
|
Wednesday, 21 May 2008 |
SteriPEN - made by Hydro-Photon, Inc., the leader in handheld water
purifiers - wants people to think outside of the bottle and go green by
purifying their own water.
One
SteriPEN JourneyLCD UV bulb can purify up to 10,000 one-liter bottles
of water. If lined up end to end, those bottles would stretch over a
mile. And the savings are not only in landfill space: by refilling
bottles, SteriPEN users aren't spending hundreds of dollars on
prepackaged water.
"The SteriPEN is perfect for
environmentally-conscious consumers who are trying to break the bottled
water habit but don't want to compromise on the quality of their
drinking water," says Ed Volkwein, President of SteriPEN. "With
SteriPEN, you can fill reusable bottles and purify tap water in just
seconds."
The SteriPEN uses ultraviolet (UV) light to destroy
the DNA of disease-causing bacteria, viruses and parasitic protozoa.
Once unable to reproduce, these microorganisms can't make you sick.
Because the SteriPEN uses UV light instead of chemicals to purify,
water doesn't have an unpleasant chemical taste.
The SteriPEN,
which is smaller than a typical remote control, is simple to use: Push
the button to select volume to treat - either 16 or 32 oz. -- then dip
the device into a container of clear water, and the SteriPEN goes to
work. All you have to do is stir. It takes 48 seconds to purify 16
ounces of water or 90 seconds for 32 ounces.
It's also perfect
for camping, hiking, and traveling abroad. Wherever you are, you can
have safe drinking water free of viruses, bacteria and protozoa.
