GO Berkey Water Filter Kit

GO Berkey Water Filter Kit



The GO Berkey Water Filter Kit is a good option for backpacking, bug out bag (BOB) or really any situation. The GO Berkey Water Filter Kit filters very well as it uses the vaunted Black Berkey Water Filter (Everything it filters is below). As mentioned in the video, GO Berkey Water Filter Kit has some things that could be changed to get that 100% pure solution like the Sport Berkey. The Sport Berkey has a 100% unable to contaminate solution, as the lid closes on the place where you can either squirt the water out or drink out of. The GO Berkey Water Filter Kit will do about 1 gallon an hour of purified water, which is admirable for a gravity system. Made of 304 Stainless Steel, the GO Berkey Water Filter Kit will last a very long time, if not forever if you take care of it. Berz Rating: 85/100
