Our Verdict

This water transport solution is an excellent choice for medium-sized groups. It includes a 6L water bladder, Hydrapak’s 28mm inline filter, and the “camp tap”. The seeker bag is made of durable TPU and compacts to a small size. The handle on the seeker is a nice touch, making it easy to carry and pour from the bottle. The bottle, filter, and camp tap all connect seamlessly using Hydrapak’s “Plug-n-play” system. This allows you to quickly disconnect the filter and attach the tap, or connect them all, to create a for a gravity flow system. The tap gives you a much more controlled water flow, so you can easily wash pots, wash your hands, or fill a drink bottle. The filter can also be connected directly to the mouth of the bottle for a faster flow rate.
