We Took Water-to-Go to the Wilds of Fiji—Here’s Why You Should Too
GEAR ⚙️
When we told the team at Water-to-Go we were heading deep into Fiji, to regions where the locals had one rule—don’t drink the water—their response was simple: “We’ve got you.” And they weren’t kidding. This bottle earned its spot as a gear essential from the moment we hit the ground. Whether you’re hiking into the unknown, tackling multi-day bikepacking adventures, or just trying to dodge dysentery abroad, this bottle has your back and more than anything it gives you peace of mind.
What Makes It Stand Out?
This isn’t just another water bottle with a fancy name. Water-to-Go is a portable survival system disguised as a simple, lightweight 600ml bottle. Fill it up at any fresh water source—be it a stream, river, or sketchy tap—and drink away without fear. No chemicals, no waiting, no fuss.
But the game-changer? It filters viruses. Most water bottles don’t. We’re talking hepatitis A, norovirus, and other nasties you don’t want to meet on your travels. Add in the removal of bacteria, parasites, heavy metals, and microplastics.
How Does It Work?
The Water-to-Go bottle uses a three-layered filtration system that purifies as you drink:
1. Mechanical Filtration: Tiny pores block contaminants from entering your water.
2. Electrostatic Filtration: Positively charged fibers attract and trap even smaller particles, like a magnet for toxins.
3. Activated Carbon: Embedded in the filter membrane, it zaps odors, bad tastes, and chemicals like chlorine.
In short? It’s clean, crisp water wherever you are—Fiji, Mexico, Bali or that dubious roadside tap on your next New Zealand road trip.
Performance Under Pressure
We didn’t baby this bottle. We dropped it, shoved it into bike cages, and left it rolling around the back of the van. Its durable, FDA-approved BPA-free plastic held up like a champ. At just 132 grams, it’s light enough to forget about until you need it. And the flip-top lid? A lifesaver when you’re hands-deep in trail dirt or sand.
Each filter lasts 200 liters (about 53 gallons) or roughly three months of regular use. That’s enough to get through a serious expedition—or save 400 single-use plastic bottles from choking the oceans.
Who’s It For?
If you’re the kind of adventurer who heads off-grid or regularly travels to places with dodgy water, this is your new best mate. Cyclists, backpackers, and international explorers will love the grab-and-go simplicity, while eco-conscious travellers can feel good knowing they’re reducing plastic waste, and we are all about that.
And for those eyeing Mexico, Southeast Asia, or Africa? Trust me: this is your ticket to avoiding a holiday in the bathroom.
