    I get very annoyed with companies that try to sell their products with misleading information.
    The bottle (500ml PureVis) holds 500ml, but if you fill it with exactly that volume, you won't be able to put the cap on. And if you read the manual you will see the text "Fill with clear water up to the indicator line". And that line is about 10mm above the Larq logo on the bottle. Yes, the line that lies far below the bottleneck. So the volume you can fill the bottle and get it working is around 370ml (which is 26% less than the stated 500ml). They never tell any buyer that, so most users are probably using this bottle incorrectly...

    I own both the 25oz and the 32oz bottles.
    I like knowing that they "clean" themselves, but I have to admit, I just love drinking out of the insulated metal bottles (they stay cold FOREVER!), and despite their self cleaning ability, I'm not the greatest housekeeper, but I'm really big on cleanliness with my kitchen and anything I'm going to eat or drink, so I still give them a regular washout myself with antibacterial dish soap.

      I find our technological progress fascinating, and enjoy science, engineering and history/human culture. These UV bottles can clean themselves, as long as the water inside isn't from a lake. :) When I was 13 or so, I thought of an idea of a water bottle that could use a low power UV tube light to clean germs from spit backwash and stuff. Then, 5 years later in the late 2010s, I looked up if a bottle has been invented, and apparently LARQ did it back in 2017. So, an idea that I had 9-10 years ago, came into fruition by another company. I commend LARQ for their efforts, a small newcomer business, though the bottle costs $100. Lol... Whew, that is pricey. Guess I'll have to wash my regular bottle by hand for a few more years ;)

    Tap water is treated with chlorine and flouride to treat and kill bacteria etc. That being said water filters are designed to filter out heavy metals and this already filtration tech will also kill bacteria aswell. So what is the parts per million filtration rating on this bottle? Brita is 6PPM and Zero water filter is 0 PPm why doesnt anyone talk about metal ppm ratings with this bottle? Seems like a bit of a scam tbh
