CamelBak Long Neck Reservoir for Legacy Carriers

Key Features for Field Use

Long Neck vs. Antidote Reservoir
If you're comparing the Long Neck to CamelBak's Antidote reservoir, note that the Long Neck features a wider fill opening with a quick-connect bayonet system, while the Antidote uses a screw-top cap. The Long Neck is specifically designed for older carriers and is compatible with certain military gear, making it a reliable replacement for those systems.
Installation and Maintenance
To install, simply slide the reservoir into the hydration sleeve of a compatible pack, route the tube through the designated port, and secure the bite valve. The reservoir can be cleaned with mild soap and water, and the tube can be removed for thorough drying.
For military personnel and outdoor enthusiasts using legacy CamelBak gear, the CamelBak Long Neck Reservoir provides reliable, high-performance hydration in a familiar form.
