I'm so confused. The Sawyer gizmo's sound incredible.
These water filtration systems are basically filling up a 25litre bucket and the gizmo cleans the dirty water and make it safe to drink?
One of the gizmo's is claiming I can get 1,000,000 litres of clean water?
So if I have read right, for my situation, I can use my 90 days of bottled water (i'm only prepping for 90 days) but if SHTF longer than my 90 day water supply I can take this 25 litre bucket to my nearby deep well / river every day and have fresh clean drinking water? That's 228 years of clean water based on my needs assuming my river doesn't run dry / contaminated!
Please say yes.....!!!!

Yes
But, if the water source has other pollutants, ie. Chemical or heavy metals. I'm not sure if it will do the business.
I'm sure someone with a better understanding will come along and answer.
I have 2 sawyer minis, and If I remember rightly they do approx 300,000 ltrs each. You do need to backwash them to keep them clear of particles.
My water preps are 180ltrs in 20 ltr cans, 40 ltrs in 2 ltr bottles, loads of puri tabs, 2 sawyer minis and the ability to boil.
