There are few experiences as exhilarating as traveling to another country. New foods, sights, smells and scenery can be positively captivating.
What's not so captivating is being tethered to the hotel restroom because you drank some less-than-desiralbe water on vacation ...Technology is here to save you from those intestine attacking microbes. The SteriPEN Traveler water purifier ($130) is a handheld device that cleans your water using a beam of ultraviolet light, killing all bacteria and viruses. It’s also great for camping because it runs on a rechargeable battery that can be charged with a solar pack ($50).
Stir a glass of water with it and you feel as comfortable as you do using your tap at home - no promises on the local cuisine though.
