Hello Benjamin

I have just switched over to a Miox purified after using a Katadyne ceramic/active carbon pump for a long time.

I find the Miox is much lighter, such that it has become a part of my EDC. I regularly head up into the hills with as little as possible for a few days camping at a time and the less I have to lug the better.

The downside of the Miox is that it won't treat chemically polluted water, unlike the active carbon in the Katadyne - not a problem where I am, but it might be an issue for you. Also, it really does make the water taste like chlorine.

Still, it's light as a feather, really cheap to run and as I say it takes up almost no room in my bag. If you have any questions, feel free to ask.
