Interesting, Because of the design this should be able to freeze and not lose effectiveness correct?

Dude, that looks to be pretty bad ass! Yes, one would think that temperature would have no effect by design. Definitely worth looking into, Thank you.

Damn...I was really liking the concept before I saw the FAQ link. It makes me wonder why freezing affects this design, I get it when it comes to the filter tubes, but I would have thought it would not matter for this.

Guess it is back to the Steripen and MSR.

Might have to do with the pores in the filter itself. If water was present and it froze inside the filter, as the frozen water expanded (Ice) it would enlarge the pores and damage the filter. Probably the larger pores would allow contaminants to flow through the now expanded pores.
