LifePack Emergency Water Filter

The LifePack Emergency Water Filter ensures that you will have clean water in any situation through safe and simple filtration.

The LifePack water filter provides up to 3 liters per day of clean drink from nearly any surface water source. Over a 3 day period it will produce over 9 liters (20 lbs) of clean drink. Use any water source, even muddy or brackish water to generate clear drink. Purity levels are comparable to reverse osmosis systems, and the filter meets EPA standards for the removal of biological pathogens (viruses, bacteria, cysts). This technology is being used by our military's elite fighting forces, and NASA to provide for their hydration needs.

Makes up to three liters of clean sports drink a day for three days.
LifePack solves the problem of contaminated water by allowing you to easily filter virtually any available water safely and efficiently where ever you are.
LifePack uses forward osmosis to filter out dangerous organisms such as bacteria, viruses and parasites.

55 Gallon, 30 Gallon and 15 Gallon Water Drums

Please note: At this time we only have new 30 gallon water drums, and used 55 Gallon open top drums.

UPS has changed the billable weight of over size packages (like drums). They have switched to something called "Dimensional Weight" which effectively increases all shipping costs for large items like drums. The actual calculation is complicated.

If you are interested in knowing exact costs, just place the items in your shopping cart by entering how many of the item you want, and press the "order selected items" button at the bottom of the page, then on the next page enter the shipping zip code. You never have to complete an order just to get the total costs! Call us if you need help.

Local customers can pick these up in person at our warehouse and save all shipping costs!

• Our containers are manufactured to Food Quality Standards using virgin plastics.
• Our 30 gallon drums are NEW.
• The Open top containers are USED and were used to ship tomato paste (inside liners which have been removed). The used open top drums have been rinsed, but you will want to wash them again before use. The used open top containers are ideal for general purpose storage, and the removable lids have an O-ring seal. The lid is held securely by a steel band that has an handle to expand and remove the ring without the use of any special tools.

Used Open Top 55 Gallon Drum.  Price $35.00
        Actual weight is 29 pounds, but UPS charges like it weighs 99 pounds.

Additional items ordered will be billed at their usual shipping rates.
In some cases, up to 70 pounds of other stuff can be shipped inside this drum for no extra cost. However, if you really want us to try to place your other items in the drum and revise shipping costs, please place a note in the comments section on the final order form and give us permission to revise shipping costs as required. Not all items we sell can fit inside the opening, some items (like blankets are light but take up lots of space) and we won't have time to "go back and forth" with customers about what fits and what doesn't and as a result some items may still need to ship on their own. We will do our best if requested, but basically we would need a blanket OK to mess with the shipping cost for your total order as required.

Special package deals to help reduce shipping costs on drums! We have worked up three package deals to help fill the used open top drums with other items people commonly order and that are also heavy and expensive to ship anyway, bringing up the total weight to what UPS charges with the new  "Dimensional Weight" calculations for the open top drums. Since UPS bills for 99 pounds even though the drums are less than 30 pounds, we can put some other items inside them, and the shipping cost doesn't change.  So, we have picked three combinations of items that we know will fit in the drums and can still be shipped for the 99 pound rate.

Package Deal #1: Used 55 gallon open top drum, with NEW 30 gallon water container. Additional items ordered will be billed at their usual shipping rates. Normally, UPS would charge for 195 pounds of shipping weight on this package deal if the items were shipped separately. Actual weight for this package is 44 pounds, but with this configuration UPS charges like it weighs 99 pounds because the 55 gallon drum can be placed inside the other open top drum and shipped as one item. A savings of 96 pounds of billable shipping cost! Used Open Top 55 Gallon Drum with NEW 30 gallon drum shipped inside.         Price $88.00, plus shipping         (55 gallon used open top drum at $35, + NEW 30 gallon drum at $53)

Package Deal #2: Used 55 gallon open top drum, with 3 cases of MREs with heaters shipped inside. Additional items ordered will be billed at their usual shipping rates. Extra note on this package deal: one of your MRE cases will need to be broken down as only 2 boxes will fit. The other 12 meals will need to be loose inside the drum. Normally, UPS would charge for 159 pounds of shipping weight on this package deal if the items were shipped separately. Actual weight for this package is 86 pounds, but UPS charges like it weighs 99 pounds because the 3 cases of  MREs can be placed inside the open top drum and shipped as one item. A savings of 60 pounds of billable shipping cost! Used Open Top 55 Gallon Drum packed with 3 cases of MREs with heaters.         Price: $251.00, plus shipping        (55 gallon used open top drum at $35, + 3 cases MREs with heaters at $72 each)
