The new PuriBlock GoPure Water Purifier, or Pod, is an inexpensive and convenient addition to an outdoor adventurer's hydration kit. Weighing about one ounce, the NSF/ANSI-certified Pod is made from an advanced, extremely porous, natural mineral-based ceramic that absorbs soluble and chemical impurities in tap or other potable water. It also emits trace minerals into the water, imparting a fresher taste.

You just drop the Pod into a water bottle, pitcher, hydration pack or other container holding up to 3 gallons of water. It automatically goes to work and continues working. The Pod stays effective for up to six months, treating as many as 264 gallons of water-the equivalent of 2,000 single-use water bottles. The company also makes GoPure Pet, which purifies your pet's drinking water. $24.95/$24.95. www.gopurepod.com.
