The LifeStraw Flex is a two-stage water filter built around a hollow-fiber membrane plus a carbon capsule. It works four ways: as a personal straw, screwed onto a plastic bottle, inline with a hydration bladder, or hanging from the included one-gallon gravity bag for group use. The carbon stage cuts chlorine, taste and odor, which most straw-only filters skip. It suits campers, hikers and travelers who want one filter for solo sips and shared water at camp; it is not a pump and does not remove dissolved salts or viruses.
