CamelBak Reservoir Filter Kit by LifeStraw
Turn your CamelBak hydration pack into a powerful filtration system with the CamelBak Reservoir Filter Kit by LifeStraw. This accessory snaps between the Crux reservoir body and the tube via the Quicklink connection, converting a standard reservoir into a filter reservoir. With two stages of filtration—hollow fiber membrane and activated carbon—you can safely drink from streams, lakes, and other natural sources while removing bacteria, protozoa, microplastics, and improving taste.
CamelBak Reservoir Filter Kit: Two-Stage Filtration
Stage 1: The Hollow Fiber Membrane removes 99.999999% of bacteria (like E. coli), 99.999% of protozoa (like Giardia), and 99.999% of microplastics, filtering up to 4,000 liters (1,000 gallons). Stage 2: The Activated Carbon Filter reduces chlorine and removes bad odor and taste, with a lifespan of 25 gallons / 100 liters.
Compatibility and Installation
This kit is compatible with all CamelBak reservoirs with Quicklink. It's designed for Crux reservoirs but also works with other Quicklink models. Installation is simple: just snap it between the reservoir and the tube. You can also pair it with the CamelBak Reservoir Gravity Kit (sold separately) for hands-free filtering.
Filter Replacement and Maintenance
Replace the carbon filter every 25 gallons (100 liters) or when taste/odor reduction diminishes. Replace the hollow fiber filter after 1,000 gallons (4,000 liters) or when flow rate becomes slow. The kit is BPA-free and rinses clean with water. Note: This filter does not remove viruses; for that, consider additional treatment methods.
