## Description

The SmarTube is a new hydration system with special caps, tube and mouthpiece. Allows a hygienic and convenient drink from any standard water bottle during activity.

Review: Great alternative to expensive bladder systems - The SmarTube is a really cool gadget. The fact that you can connect it to many different bottles is a definite plus. I carry two 1.5 liter soda water bottles in my backpack. When one runs out, a quick switch to the other bottle and I'm on my way. It helps to use a stiff bottle so it doesn't get crushed in your backpack. It also fits most Nalgene bottles, as well as others. The bite valve works fine and doesn't drip. The only drawback I found was that the one-way air valve in the cap didn't allow air into the bottle. A manufacturing defect, I suppose. I cut a bit of the tip of it with nail clippers, problem solved. The SmarTube is a good alternative if you don't want to spend more on (or don't like) bladder-style hydration systems. The SmarTube is easy to clean, and your water tastes like water. It comes with a small clip to attach to your clothing or shoulder strap, but it's more bother than it's worth. I'm actually surprised they don't sell these in stores, but I guess they wouldn't sell many high-dollar systems if they did. The first time I used this was on a 10 mile out-and-back hike to Mt. Baldy here in SoCal last weekend, and it worked very well.
Review: Nalgene lid leaks - I purchased this system to use with Nalgene style water bottles, and unfortunately the large mouth lid adapter leaks at the threads on the Nalgene bottle. I reached out to blue desert right after receiving the product to inform them about the manufacturing defect and have had no response. This is unfortunate, because other than that the system seems to work well, I did not notice leaking at the drinking tube interface or the check valve. Poor manufacturing quality control and no customer service.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What disposable water bottles does it fit? It does NOT fit the 16 oz Ozarka bottle**
A: I found that the cap did not fit a generic grocery store 16 oz. water bottle, but it does fit the 20 oz. Aquafina perfectly. It looks like the 16 oz bottles have a different cap size than 20 oz ones.

**Q: How many caps does it come with?**
A: As of 2019 this product has changed and it no longer comes with the widemouth cap.  You get only the 30mm cap and the 28mm adapter.  It also no longer has a clip with it.

**Q: Is this system better than Camelbak which has BPA free tub?**
A: I don´t know Camelbak system.I don´t think this has a BPA free tub. I had to change mouth piece because it was to hard tu sip water.It is very useful cause you can use with almost any kind of bottle.

**Q: What size tubing does this use?**
A: 6 inch dia tubing. There is plenty of flow.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great alternative to expensive bladder systems

### ⭐ Nalgene lid leaks

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent product overall - happy to own - but deserves a few improvements for five-star functionality
*by T***E on October 1, 2017*

Overall this is a fantastic product. I work for the U.S. Forest Service maintaining trails and fighting wildland fires, and thanks to this adapter system, I've been able to convert my wide-mouth 1.5L Nalgene water bottles (I carry up to four of these on any given day for 6L of water) into a hands-free hydration system. Thanks to my SmarTube, I am hydrating continuously throughout my workday, as opposed to waiting until I am thirsty (and beginning to become dehydrated) to stop, set my backpack down on the ground, open up a bottle, and slurp half of it down in one sitting. Supposedly, for those out on the trail or fighting fires all day long, smaller doses of water more frequently is better for the body than massive amounts of water far less frequently. I've thus found my SmarTube Hydration System to be invaluable in keeping me hydrated, healthy, and at peak operating condition during long operating shifts on the trail or fighting fires, and a number of coworkers have expressed curiosity or interest in this adapter system. As other reviewers have mentioned, a wide-mouthed Nalgene bottle is easier to clean than a hydration reservoir, and for daily use, my Nalgene bottles are perhaps more rugged for my use than a hydration bladder which could tear or develop leaks over months and years of daily use squeezed into a backpack full of other, heavy gear. That being said, this system isn't quite perfect. Its lack of perfection doesn't stop me from using it on a daily basis, but here are a few improvements I'd like to see made in a future product release / product update: 1) As some other reviewers have mentioned, it'd be handy if the straw were just a little longer. The way I have my Nalgene bottles positioned in the low-lying side pockets of my work backpack, snaking the straw up to the shoulder and down the shoulder strap to the front leaves its length just a tad bit short. I'd like to see the straw length expanded another 10-12 inches, allowing end users to cut/trim the tube as needed, but allowing for a longer straw length for those who need it. 2) Unlike many hydration bladder straws on the market today, the Blue Desert SmarTube does not have a shutoff valve near the bite end. This means that when I'm digging in the dirt or bending down for any other reason, the bite-end of the straw is prone to drip-leak, generally onto my leg – refreshing in the hot summer months, but irritating otherwise. This can be somewhat fixed by repositioning the straw itself in the webbing of my shoulder strap, but it has been an ongoing frustration. I also own an excellent Osprey brand water bladder and the end of the straw has a well-designed, durable, long-lasting right-angle shutoff valve which results in zero leaks. Incorporating such a shutoff valve into the SmarTube might increase the expense of the product, but I’d be happy to pay another few bucks for a leak-free bottle adapter straw system. 3) I have experienced some additional leakage from the top of my Nalgene bottles when the Blue Desert SmarTube system is attached to the top of the bottle and the bottle is full of water (due to the small air intake hole in the lid), namely when driving over bumpy forest roads or when the bottle is tipped at an angle other than vertical). This was also mentioned by a reviewer who purchased this system for motorcycle trips. Perhaps this is a limitation of the adapter system, whereas a hydration bladder can simply compress and does not need to balance the outflow of water with an inflow of air, but I think a one-way air valve (to let air in but not water out) built into the lid would be physically possible to build into the system, and would represent another major/worthy improvement. P.S.) I have observed that when I leave my SmarTube straw in water (eg, in one of my Nalgene bottles filled with water) for multiple days at a time, the straw becomes slimy, perhaps indicating that being immersed in water long-term is not good for the straw. Because I use this product on a weekday-daily basis for work, I'll leave the straw in an empty Nalgene bottle overnight or over the weekend, which seems to have fixed this issue. Overall, this is a wonderful product, and one which I am grateful to own, especially because Nalgene stopped manufacturing their wide mouth bottle straw adapter system years ago, this is the one Nalgene wide-mouth bottle straw adapter system I have been able to find, and it makes my life a lot easier. I am hoping that the manufacturer makes these few aforementioned product improvements in the near future which, in my opinion, would make for a five-star product. Thanks for reading.
