Once my LARQ bottle arrived and had gotten over how aesthetically pleasing it was, I charged it up and put it to use. Many of the best water bottles, especially those that are insulated, have some heft to them, and are made from durable stainless steel; this allows for some models to handle both hot and cold drinks with aplomb. Budget-priced bottles are usually made from plastic — which makes them a lot lighter, too, which makes them more suitable for runners or bikers. Bells & Whistles If you often forget to drink throughout the day (or even if you're simply searching for a new emotional-support water bottle), a smart water bottle can help. These bottles have tech-forward features that can remind you to drink, sanitize your water, send you their location, and more. While they are usually more of an investment than traditional bottles, smart water bottles may be a smart buy if you've tried other ways to boost your water intake with limited success. Taste: How does the water taste after going through the purification cycle, compared to my drinking water? Long-lasting battery life: The bottle can last up to one month on a single full charge from a usb connection, making it perfect for travel or outdoor activities.

On a fully charged battery, the Mahaton self sanitizing water bottle can last up to three weeks if you run the purifying cycle four times each day. That's a little less than the LARQ and CrazyCap 2, but it's not so short that you have to constantly charge the bottle. UV lights, according to the Environmental Protection Agency, can be a good way to disinfect water. These UV-C lights kill bacteria by destroying them to the point that they can no longer reproduce. UV-C light exposure: Some studies suggest that prolonged exposure to UV-C light may affect the taste of the water, although the Larq water bottle is designed to minimize this issue, and I haven’t noticed any problems with the taste personally. Personal Review and Experience With The Larq Water BottleThe bottle’s UV light is automatically triggered every two hours to keep the bottle constantly clean, while you can also press the button to trigger it at any time.

The research report presents a comprehensive assessment of the Self-cleaning Bottle Market and contains deep insights, facts, historical and statistically supported and industry-validated market data. As we discovered in our LARQ Bottle review, this pioneering bottle not only makes tap water clean to drink, but there’s none of that musty odor you typically get from ordinary water bottles. So you can trade those single-use plastic bottles for an eco-friendly, stink-free, and totally safe drinking experience. While this bottle is only available in one, 17-ounce size, we appreciate that the battery lasts up to seven days on a single charge. A single charge on the LARQ can last up to two months if you run it through three to four cleaning cycles (in standard mode) each day. The charge can last up to 12 days if you use the adventure mode.

Of course, sustainability thinkers are trying to steer clear of plastic bottles. But what are the healthiest bottles to drink from?
