sorry for the late reply, i have not noticed any problems taste wise with either of these jugs and both have been fine as far as durability goes but to be honest when in the van i have it strapped down and it does not get moved around very much.

i have the regular sized sawyer squeeze and have used it many times with no problems, planning on picking up the mini version next.  the sawyer squeeze mini version is 20.00 bucks at walmart so it is rather affordable also.

i too use the blue cube or reliance aqua-tainer i had a seven gallon one but recently found the 4 gallon version which is lighter when full of course but also fits better under my cabinet which allowed me to add another basket drawer for miscellaneous essentials.  

while i agree with you that its not what the forum is about it has wheels none the less so i think they might let it slide haha!!!! i know i would like to see what you have done with your tiny home, i have my van setup but i would also like to buy a small piece of property somewhere for a...

check out the powerwerx.com site that sternwake posted they have some other mounts for them also plus all the connectors and crimpers needed for them.

sternwake do you have a link to the crimper you were going to buy ? is it available on amazon? if so i would also like to pick one up so i have the right tool for the job.

thanks for the link bob i remember sternwake posting about using those but could not remember the name i went ahead and ordered some to have on hand. now i need to go read the thread on proper crimping and find me some quality crimpers. i will go ahead and wire in that 12volt socket just for...
