28mm Vecto Water Container

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!

We purchased orange and blue and had a sweet system going. Orange we dipped in the lake and sawyer squeezed into blue. With 4 of us and two sets of bags, we were able to keep up with our water needs fairly easily.

I haven't had a chance to use this in the wild extensively yet but I've tested it a bit, it works with my Sawyer mini and I love the 2L volume and the way you can open the bottom to collect water from still sources like lakes.
My comments relate more to the purchase experience being really good.

I originally saw this reservoir on the Intsa and went through Amazon to purchase it, thinking it was the only way. I live in the middle of nowhere WY so it's natural for Amazon deliveries to take a week or two. After a month, my order had not even shipped and the delivery date kept getting pushed by weeks. I had two backpacking trips the reservoir would have been excellent for in the meantime. After the order failed to ship by the date it said it would be delivered, I canceled the Amazon order and ordered the reservoir directly through Cnoc. It shipped in less than a day, arrived 3 days later, and I even got an email notification when it was delivered. Purchasing directly from the source and not fussing with Amazon Prime b.s. was the way to go in the beginning and I was impressed with how fast Cnoc shipped the order.

I took these out for the first time last weekend on a 4 day trip and punctured one on a tree splinter on day 3. It was near the top so not a big deal and easily patchable (glad I got those). I should have been more careful but a little disappointed with how easily it happened. I love how easy they are to fill and that they feel secure for transporting water. I filtered one clean bag and then left a dirty bag out on a rock to heat up in the sun then had a lovely wash up each day with the clean hands attachment. I did find the slide tops a little hard to get on and off and managed to cut myself on the corner of one when I was trying to get it off. I'm sure some silicone, like what I put on my regular hydration bladder will solver this.
