SteriPEN Adventurer by Tim Yu

Lighter, faster and half the size of its predecessor (the Classic), the new SteriPEN Adventurer uses UV light to sterilize sketchy water in under a minute. Ensuring safe drinking water where ever your travels take you, I would not have survived without it on my recent travels to countries like Cambodia and Laos.

Just press the button and place the lamp end in the water and stir. If you prematurely take the lamp out of the water, the purifier will warn you with a red light that the water is not ready to drink. There is no need for chemicals or harsh treatments that leave your water tasting like metal. Using the same sterilization technique as hospitals, the Adventurer can purify 16 ounces of water in 48 seconds, killing bacteria and viruses related to Dysentary, E. Coli, Salmonella, Cholera, Typhoid Fever and Giardia, among others—ailments could ruin your trip or even worse.

A must have for summer travels, the Adventurer SteriPEN is available at Amazon for $130.

Color Changing Pavement
Simple, effective and possibly life-saving idea, France's Eurovia is developing a thermosensitive road varnish that changes color to indicate freezing and dangerous conditions.

Not only a boon to motorists, but it helps out the environment...
Nordaq Fresh Water Filtration System
Nordaq Fresh is a new Swedish water filtration system that may change the way restaurants think about drinking water. We hit Napa this weekend and one of the many pleasures was an afternoon at The French Laundry (thanks for the hook up, José). When our waiter explained our water options—locally filtered flat or sparking, on the house) we were pleasantly surprised. He went on...
Labyrinth Aquarium
Are your fish envious of your hamster's Habitrail? Now you can hook them up in style with a Labyrinth Aquarium, which features multiple connected tanks for your fish to explore. The aquariums come with all of the filters, lights, pumps and cleaning equipment you need, all hidden away in the cabinet below. Thanks to CH reader Ion Dog, who posted the Labyrinth Aquarium in...
Porsche Design Studio for Fearless Yachts
Fearless Yachts of Miami Beach offer some of the sleekest, most attractive watercraft we've seen in quite some time. It's probably no accident that these speedboats—Models 28 and 68 we find most appealing—are something a worthy of Sonny Crocket or a James Bond supervillain. Designed by Porsche Design Studios, each vessel is built for speed and control and worthy of the moniker yacht (which...
