Smartwater Bottle Upgrades: Cnoc THRU vs. Igneous NOBO!

Smartwater bottles have long held top place among thru hikers and ultralight backpackers but now it may be time for a change. Introducing the @cnocoutdoors THRU bottle and the Igneous NOBO upgrades to the Smartwater bottle! Big thanks to both companies for sending me these to check out! *In the original version of this video, I noted a problem I had when attaching a Platypus Quickdraw water filter to the Cnoc Thru. I later discovered that it was a defective bottle and the others I tried worked fine. I therefore removed that segment. ----- LINKS FROM THIS VIDEO ----- Cnoc Thru Bottle - https://alnk.to/gVO3viG Igneous NOBO Bottle - https://igneousgear.com/products/nobo-bottle?sca_ref=10003989.RTgOgb1QiNXx0 Igneous Bottle Cap Bidet - https://igneousgear.com/products/bottle-cap-bidet?sca_ref=10003989.RTgOgb1QiNXx0 SmartWater Bottle (1L - comes with water!) - https://amzn.to/47Dh0Fn Platypus Quickdraw - https://amzn.to/3EqJXpy Sawyer Squeeze Water Filter - https://amzn.to/2yD2zDc Sawyer Squeeze Replacement Gasket Seals (You'll need them!) - https://amzn.to/32d5huO 0:00 Smartwater Bottles 0:33 Gear Giveaway! 1:14 Smartwater Bottle, Cnoc Thru, Igneous NOBO Comparisons 1:34 Volume 1:45 Cap Thread 1:56 Weights 2:07 Materials 2:49 Prices 3:03 Lids 3:14 Measurements 3:52 Accessory Compatibility 4:45 Markings 5:05 Water Filter Compatibility* 5:40 Igneous Bidet Cap 5:49 My Conclusion GIVEAWAY HAS ENDED!
