Wore out my first Vecto after 2 Boy Scout 50Milers and hundreds of miles on the AT. The bag goes shallow which is awesome in low water spots. Fantastic product that packs down small too.
Everyone in my group preferred using my vecto to gather water over their other water bladders. Often that’s because they couldn’t get there’s to fill in shallow streams, while the vecto fills easily through the large opening.
Got 2 of the 3L 28mm Vecto containers to filter water on a canoe in trip in the Boundary waters. Filtered well over 20L per day. Awesome product. Paired with a 28mm adapter and Sawyer Squeeze. Filtered water quickly. Easy to fill up. Packs down small for traveling.
I've been telling my friends about this. I used to carry a small bottle to scoop up water with and pour it in the Sawyer squeeze bag and of course always carried an extra squeeze bag in case the first gave out. Now I just have the Vecto and my filter. I can gather water quickly with equipment that's less bulky, fewer in number, and more reliable. Perfect!
