  • Hey, what groovy? ... NOT THIS WATER FILTER! ‪@iTehil‬
    So disappointed with the outcome of the ITEHIL water purifier, we flushed the filters 4/5 times in the end and the taste was still the same. I was convinced this filter must be faulty but apparently not.
    If you DARE to test out this water 'purifier' for yourselves here is the link and the £40 discount code. Groovy40

    Try a different water source. Fishing lakes are typically covered in mud and there will be stagnant water, not to mention high nitrates from all the rotten fish bait that goes uneaten. Try it in a place where water is moving and not enclosed. Even canal water would be better.

      @@the_groovy_life ok, but in reality, nobody would use pond water. A big lake, maybe. In reality you would always look for freshwater or a running stream. It would take serious filtration to remove everything from stagnant pond water.

    Have seen systems for on narrow boats that turn canal water into drinking water, they have about six different filters all doing different jobs. Can't see how they can say just a carbon filter or two provides safe drinking water, without also specifying which sources of water it works with.

      @@the_groovy_life I just read that carbon filters don't take out the bacteria. I'm guessing it must also have a UV light inside to kill those. If the water has to be exposed to the light for a long time that might be why the drinking water comes out so slowy.

    I bought one of these filters and I was very happy with the way it filtered. My problem was the battery life was only 20-24 minutes before it needed recharging. No way I could get the advertised 27 liters per charge. The manual is poor. I am returning it unless their customer support can give me a satisfactory resolution in the next few days.

    • @the_groovy_life
      @the_groovy_life  11 днів тому

      That's such a shame. I didn't get chance to use it enough to work out the charge, I knew it took a long time to charge up though, not good when you are on limited power. What water did you filter with it? Hopefully they can resolve it for you 🙏
