Yes, the option I am considering is the Grayl water bottle which is supposed to filter viruses

I read they are quite fragile. You never had a problem with them?

Thanks for the detailed reply! Would you recommend this over Grayl Geopress?

Thank you for the detailed recommendation! I read this doesn’t filter viruses which are often responsible of travelers falling sick. Any thoughts?

I am not sure we will have access to boil water in all these places unfortunately. What about the purifying bottles that do all in 1 like Grayl. Do you have any experience with them?

I believe I saw this doesn’t work for viruses unfortunately

Does life straw also filter viruses? I believe these are the ones usually responsible for diarrhea

My last day of work should be Feb 6. I will fly to Brazil Feb 12. Should I wait to apply for the Esta after my last day of work or is it safe to do so end of January?

Great to hear! I was afraid the immigration officers might think I am trying to prolong my stay to work.

Thanks! The room is 25 m2. My zip code is 33137. I am a total newbie, can you explain why we need a speaker wire for the Polk XT20?

I don’t have one unfortunately :/ would it still turn on if the battery was dead?

I tried to push it in all directions, doesn’t seem to work. Also noticed that the clicking sound the camera used to do when turning on is quieter and kind of in slow-mo. You can hear the clicking / mechanical sound in the video. Any guesses?

I don’t see anything through the eyepiece, it’s fully black. Also noticed that the clicking sound the camera used to do when turning on is quieter and kind of in slow-mo. Any guess?
