    Unique Outdoor Gadgets I Showed on World News Now.

    If you missed the spot on air, it's here on the ABC News website: https://abcnews.go.com/WNN/video/gadgets-great-outdoors-64016135

    These amazing straws have been around for years, but I'm amazed at how few people know about them and all the new ways you can take Lifestraw with you on outdoor trips.

    LifeStraw Personal Water Filter.  LifeStraw says you can use this straw to transform 1,000 liters or 264 gallons of contaminated water into clean, safe drinking water. That's more water than the average person drinks in a year! Weighs just 2oz so no need to lug water on your next backpacking trip. PLUS: During any disaster or emergency event locating safe drinking water is vital. The LifeStraw never expires, and its small footprint makes it perfect for most emergency kits. I asked about using it with Hudson River (salt) water and was told it is not meant for use in salt water. All the details of what the straw can do and what it can remove is available at the company website. The Personal Water Filter sells for between $15 & $20.

    There you can see all the other devices  the company makes that uses their amazing technology, including new LifeStraw releases for 2019.
