LARQ launched a purifying bottle that allows you to go on a trip without worrying that the local water will harm you. We tell you everything you need to know here!
One of the recommendations for human beings is to drink at least two liters of water per day to be well hydrated. But it often happens that one of the great disadvantages when we travel is that the local water makes us sick and we have to take our own water or buy bottles of water. LARQ thought about this and launched a purifying bottle that allows us to forget about this problem.
The bottle is half a liter and has technology UV-C LEDs which can filter up to 99% of the contaminants found in the water. This allows us to fill the bottle from any source and not worry about the water making us sick or being poorly filtered. The only condition is that the water has to be clear, it cannot have any type of garbage or sediment.
One of the great advantages of this reusable bottle is that we avoid buying water bottles to refill some other bottle. This is the main purpose of LARQ, prevent the generation of this type of waste that affects the environment. Another great advantage is that it has a car wash system. This means that the bottle does not have to be washed as many times as any other reusable bottle. The self-washing system is activated every two hours and takes away one of the great concerns, which is the washing of reusable bottles.
the bottles of LARQ They come in various colors and designs. The model of the bottle is quite simple and similar to any other reusable steel bottle. However, the variety of colors is quite wide and allows us to choose the color that best suits us. LARQ also offers a variety of covers and cases to be able to transport the bottle.
But what matters most to us about the bottle of LARQ It is not its style and colors but how it works itself. The bottle has two purification modes depending on the water being used. Normal mode, which is used for water you know where it comes from, takes just a minute to purify the water. However, the adventure mode, which is the one used for example with lake water, which takes about three minutes.
The bottle, as we told you, has light UV-C which removes biological contaminants. It does this by destroying your DNAwhich when done in adventure mode, is the equivalent of boiling water for 20 minutes. However, it is necessary to know well what contaminants the water can have because purification by UV-C can delete up to 99% of contaminants, but there are some elements that it does not remove and that make the water not entirely safe to drink.
In terms of battery life, the bottle has quite a long battery life. Included in the box is a cable USB to charge it and the bottle turns on a light when its battery is low. If used in normal mode, it can last between one to two months without charging. But if used in adventure mode, it can last a little over two weeks.
And the most important part and the one that you are probably wondering is how much this bottle costs. The water purifying bottle LARQ costs $95, which is a fairly considered price if you take into account everything that is saved with this first investment. It is not known where it can be purchased or when it will arrive at the store. Argentinabut in case it does, we are facing a very interesting proposal that will probably attract the attention of many.
