What I like about these tablets is that they are cheap enough ($8.75 per 50/ strip pack) and have a 5 year shelf life which means there is no reason not to carry these not only for wilderness use, but also having a partial strip pack of 10 or so in the urban PSK only makes prudent sense.


I saw those yesterday, Teslinhiker. I like the price point and the blister packing. One thing I'm Leary of about bottles is the exposure to air every time you open the bottle. A longer shelf life is a good thing in an emergency kit.

These sound easier to use than some of the other stuff I've seen. That's a big plus too!
