The Best Of Both Worlds
Hiking and exploring with a Camelbak™ is pretty amazing - you can cover miles on the trails and enjoy the outdoors so much more without taking your pack off to drink water! With those hydration systems you're not just *carrying* water - you're *drinking* water!
The appeal of the Camelbak is mostly in the tube and bite valve… pretty much all of those hydration systems require you to drink from a flexible bag of water. It tastes like plastic, you’ve got to use a specialized backpack or squeeze the bladder into your bag, it gets moldy real fast, and you can only use it when wearing the bag.
One Bottle combines the convenience of the hydration bladder with the versatility of your favorite bottle!
As of October 2021 that means One Bottle sells adapter kits and adapter parts for the wide-mouth Nalgene/Hydro Flask (and all compatible bottles), the 28mm Smartwater bottle, or YETI Chug/MagDock lids!
Drink Water and Don’t Stop!
FAMILY PICTURE!
The 63mm Nalgene wide-mouth lid is an industry standard - fits Hydro Flask and a ton of other bottles!
The flip-top lid that comes with your wide-mouth system makes it really easy to drink from your bottle in the car!
Ultralight hikers love the 28mm Smartwater bottle! This adapter has a convenient carry loop so you can secure it in your side pocket!
The 28mm Smartwater adapter fits most of the soda and premium water bottles in the US. You can easily upcycle almost anything, and quickly replace your bottle if it gets contaminated! *Unfortunately the thinner bottles and smaller mouths that Deer Park and Poland Spring are bottled in don't fit this adapter!
The Yeti Magdock/Chug Cap adapter is a larger version of the 28mm adapter! Most Yeti Rambler bottles sold in 2021 have the Chug Cap standard - you should be able to find this on Yeti's website or an authorized reseller!
Leave the Camelbak™ Behind!
There’s a reason why so many people have Camelbaks™ - they make life so much easier in the heat and humidity, even if the water starts to taste like room-temperature plastic after a while!
But when you’re not outdoors, you really have no use for it. It’s awkward to use a Camelbak™ at the office or on the airplane - so for most of your vacation it’s just another thing to carry. With One Bottle you’re using the same bottle and the same backpack!
And when you get home you have to clean that plastic bag… and then it becomes a huge hassle. The plastic might have absorbed some flavors, you have to pull the whole thing out and drain it, and there’s always the worry about mildew growing in there.
Some people I’ve met have just ended up getting a new Camelbak™ after they see the mildew growth!
One Bottle is designed to be removed and installed so it’s a lot easier to clean - just flush and drain the tube out and let it dry!
One Bottle's 3D printed adapter screws right into the mouthpiece of the flip top Lid!
Take off the drinking tube and you've got a regular water bottle!
All the parts disassemble for easy cleaning!
Who knows what's growing inside here?
One Bottle Fits on Your Bottle
The One Bottle flip-top lid fits on most wide-mouth containers sold for outdoors use, including
Nalgene™
Hydro Flask™
ThermoFlask™ (sold at Costco)
Takeya™ (sold at Costco and Target)
28mm Smartwater bottles
YETI Chug and MagDock lids!
If yours isn’t one of these, please contact me! The adapter is 3D printed so I can adjust the dimensions to fit a few millimeters here and there.
The Thermoflask they sell at Costco is 1/4 the price of the same size Hydro Flask... and I think they come from the same Chinese factories!
Couldn't bring myself to spend $55 on a 40 oz Hydro Flask, so I'm just using this tiny one to show the lid fits!
The Nalgene is the Original Gangsta wide-mouth water bottle! This one still comes in handy for hiking as light as possible!
