Because they are non-sugar, they are much smaller and lighter, but still provide some vitamins and electrolytes. They also don't gunk-up the plumbing on sip-style bottles.

I tried some of those propel and others and while they are non sugar they all had nutrasweet or some other artificial sugar, they all gave me a bad headache like when a restaurant brings out diet soda by mistake.
I found packets of country time lemonaid and the single bottle packets of gatoraid are the same size.
