Detailed review
Electrically operated, automatic filtration
When it comes to outdoor water purifiers, the most common type is one that can be attached to a pouch, water jug, or plastic bottle, but the Greeeshow is an electric water purifier, which is rare for a water purifier. This is the biggest advantage of the Greeeshow electric portable water purifier
It's incredibly easy to use: just submerge the external filter in the water source you want to purify and press the switch. There's no need to fill a pouch or plastic bottle with water and then transfer the purified water to another container; simply pour the purified water directly into the container, making the water purification process a breeze
Simply submerge the external filter in the water source
The included tube is about 1m long, so you can draw water from a distance and avoid getting your shoes wet. You don't have to worry about accidentally splashing yourself in water when drawing water for purification (this has happened to me)
By using the included tube, you can purify water without holding it in your hands
By attaching a special tube to the purified water outlet from which the purified water comes out, you can purify water without having to hold it in your hand
Purifying water requires abundant water sources
It can purify water in places with abundant water, such as rivers, but it cannot purify water in places with trickling water because the external filter cannot be submerged (although it can be done if you have a container to store water)
Considering these points, this water purifier is more useful for waterside camping than for mountain climbing. I used it while stream fishing, and it was able to purify the water from the river flowing right in front of me, ensuring I had the water I needed
The purified water is cold and delicious
Much faster than manual water purifiers
Water purification begins with the push of a button, and it takes about 60 seconds to purify 500ml of water
Because there is no need to draw water and then purify it, the water can be purified in a shorter time than with a manual water purifier. This was convenient because I could quickly prepare purified water for cooking during my break
One thing that bothered me was that the filter media replacement interval is set to 1000 liters or 6 months. Some manual water purifiers can be used semi-permanently by cleaning them, so the filter media needs to be replaced more frequently, which increases the running costs
Built-in battery for repeated use
The Greeeshow electric portable water purifier has a built-in 2800mAh battery and can be used repeatedly by charging it
You can charge it by plugging it into a USB port on a computer or other device using the included cord, so you can take it out into the field without having to buy new batteries
Battery level at a glance
Even though it is an electric model, if it is battery-operated, it is inevitable that you will not know how much battery power is left, so you will have to insert new batteries every time, or you may end up running out of batteries when you want to use it, which can be a problem.However, since it has a built-in battery and a battery power indicator, you can see the remaining battery power at a glance, which helps to avoid problems
Because it is battery-powered, it will become unusable if the battery runs out, but if you fully charge it before use, it can be used without any problems for camping trips of one to two nights. By the way, when I used it for one night, the battery level did not decrease at all
compact
As you can see when comparing it to a 500ml plastic bottle, the body is compact and highly portable despite being electric. It may feel too large to carry around if you're using it for mountain climbing or hiking, but for outdoor activities like camping, fishing, or playing in the river, this size makes it easy to carry around without any stress
The dedicated storage case can hold everything you need and can be carried around
Summary: An electric type that is useful when camping. Also good to stock up on for disaster preparedness
