Features to Note:

  • 3 adaptors - to fit standard Sigg, Laken, Nalgene, Evian-style (ie mineral water) bottles

  • Co-extruded tube plus PP, PE and POM injected plastic parts
  • Grunge-guard anti-microbial agent

In-use Test:

Source's Convertube is so simple, you do wonder why it's not appeared before. Essentially, it's a kit which enables a variety of bottles to be converted into a hydration system.

It's simple to use - I've tried it so far with a Sigg bottle. It takes a matter of seconds to fit the tube plus adaptor. It's effectively a Source hydration system - but without the water container - so once fitted the tube will run easily through the standard exit port on an hydration compatible daypack.

Water tastes fine and - in view of my experience with other Source Hydration Products - I'm confident that the other key feature (the lack of 'grunge' build-up) will be a real 'plus' in this as well.

My favourite product this year!

Buying Advice:

For maximum flexibility in choice of hydration option, Source's Convertube, is hard to beat.
