The Sawyer Mini Water Filter is a second generation filter that is the lightest and most versatile personal filtration system from Sawyer. With a total field weight of 2 ounces it fits in the palm of your hand. This tiny filter does the same job that the Sawyer PointOne filter does but now in a more compact, personal size. The Sawyer Mini filter is perfect for everything from camping with the kids to traveling abroad where tap and bottle water cannot be trusted.
The filter removes 7 log (99.99999%) of all bacteria (like salmonella) as well as other harmful bacteria which causes cholera and E. coli and 6 log (99.9999%) of all protozoa such as giardia and cryptosporidium. These removal rates equal or exceed other filter options. EPA guidelines allow ten times more protozoa left in the water than Sawyer PointOne filters allow.
Attach the Mini to the included drinking pouch, use the included straw to drink directly from your water source, connect it to hydration pack tubing (sold separately), or screw it onto standard disposable bottles (28 mm thread). The Sawyer Mini Water Filter is rated up to 100,000 gallons. It comes with 16-ounce reusable squeeze pouch, 7-inch drinking straw, and cleaning plunger.
Since 1984, Sawyer Products has offered the best, most technologically advanced solutions for protection against sun, bugs, water, and injuries — everything from first aid kits developed for wilderness to point-of-use water filters that filter contaminated water to levels cleaner than U.S. bottled water.

Easy to use and fear of Beaver Fever is gone. At long last I can easily drink from mountain streams and lakes. The fresh water from these sources really tastes good. No plastic or chemical taste. As well as tasting good, as yet no “Beaver Fever” and considering this filters down to 0.1 micron there’s no fear also.I have some filter straws but have never used them because their limit on how much they can filter and I wanted to save them for emergencies. This Sawyer filter is good for 100,000 gallons so there’s no fear of…
Good Back Up Water Treatment How can a typical backpacker or survivalist review this? I cannot analyze water before and after through a chemical analysis. I have to operate a bit on trust and on taste. The technology has been evaluated by labs over the years. So I have tested these according to a ‘taste test.’ I do not taste the water purifying compound our fine municipal service uses for our daily water supply. Brewed coffee tastes ‘just that little bit better’ when I filtered the water. I read that Sawyer…
Latest addition to the B.O.B. packs. I own several different water purification devices ranging from one that has a larger filter element you can just drop in your potentially suspect water source and pump into your collection container. But it isn’t a small unit and filters, while back flushable, aren’t cheap to replace as all such devices are.I have another small filter (name escapes me at the moment) that stays in my medium satchel I carry EVERYWHERE I am if I need to go to town and be away for a few hours.Then I…
