The Titanium Water Bottle weighs almost the same as a steel one, and costs just 15 times more
If you regularly buy bottled water, you should probably stop ruining the planet for the rest of us and refill a bottle from the tap instead. An old water bottle will probably do just fine, but in case that’s just not cool enough for such a fashion conscious person as yourself, why not try the Titanium Water Bottle from Exotac?
The bottle can be had with a plastic or titanium cap and holds 650ml (22 ounces) of water. The main selling point is weight, although as it is designed to lug around 22 ounces of water, the weight saving over stainless steel seems moot. The bottle has an empty weight of four ounces including the cap. This compares to around five ounces for a comparably-sized steel bottle. If you’re not keeping count, that’s a saving of one whole ounce.
Like steel, the bottle can also be used to heat water on a fire or camping stove. Unlike steel bottles, which can be had for $5, the Titanium Water Bottle costs an absurd $75 (plus another $10 for the titanium cap). Maybe that old Evian bottle will do fine after all.
