![]() have bought from them a couple of times all with no problem. I'm pretty sure I just got standard postage from Moontrail and it still got here in the week. Will have to keep my eyes open for the battery now. Yep- I have the journey and am using the Lithium battery which came with it- have not yet replaced it (just took purification tabs with me on standby should it run out).

I can't see how high humidity would affect the functioning of the Steripen?). Yes, they are potentially fragile, but if you are sensible with their use and store it in the protective case provided you shouldn't have any problems. Don't use a GPS, so not problem there.Īgree that it's worth taking some tablets as a back up.Īlso curious as to how the Steripens were failing. Surely the same logic applies to electronic water filters?Yes, so I would always take a few tablets as well, or boil the water. I often hear the argument that you shouldn't rely solely on a GPS for navigation because it could fail and you'd be lost without a backup. They were failing left right and centre when I did Kokoda so I don't think they handle high humidity well (strange for a WATER filter).
