@@QorePerformanceUSA Since we're now going towards semi-rigid water containers, why not make it with an internal titanium lining for healthier water, easier and less frequent cleaning? I know it would cost a little bit more but I'd gladly pay for the upgrade. You could even make an insert with magnifying lenses to use the sun itself to kill the internal bacteria, plus, titanium is inert when put in contact with food or water, it doesn't dent or scratch as easily as other metals... Plus, with a titanium lining you could easily sanitize them with UV lights instead of chemicals. Also, could you make an adapter for a LifeStraw filter? P.S. I just looked if someone had done studies with UV light on titanium and I've found this small study that seems to report that it is indeed doable to clean titanium even with low levels of UV light. www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5331176/
What would be the point of wearing it anywhere but the inside of your carrier? How could it cool you down if it’s got a rifle plate in between it and you?
