Troy, Thanksfor the quick turnaround. I have a few more minor edits, in the sameEDIT/Edit/Comment format. None requires a re-write so after making therevisions you may upload to http://tinyurl.com/5vrxa7 Whenyou do so be sure to click the "Owner Review" box. Also, pleasedelete your Tests/OR folder copy. Asthis is your second Owner Review, you are now officially a Newbie and eligibleto apply to test gear. Congratulations! To do this, you need to (i) complete atester agreement (you can download one from the BackpackGearTest.org website),and send it to Kathy Waters (address on the website), and (ii) join BGT’ssister Yahoo group, backpackgeartestERS, and watch for Test Calls. A hint –keep posting Owner Reviews. That will earn you credit with the Test Managers. Cheers,Richard_____________________________ ###Manufacturer: Katadyn

###Capacity: 200 gal(750 l)
### EDIT200 U.S. gal [BGT's approved abbreviations, which are mandatory, are listedbelow the conversion table on BGT's website. Though now rarely used there issomething called an Imperial gallon, which is slightly more than a U.S.gallon.] ###It also comes with a 36 in (91cm) output hose that can be attached to waterbottles with openings that are 2 in (5.08 cm) or greater ###
Edit: (5 cm) [Better to round off]
### It all fits nicely ina black, zippered bag that can easily clip to a backpack. ###EDIT: to my backpack [You can't speak for all backpacks. ]
### I have filteredapproximately 100 g(379 L) which is around half of the manufacturers listed capacity. ###
EDIT: 100 U.S. gal [As above. "g" is the abbreviation for grams.]EDXIT: manufacturer's[possessive, with an apostrophe] ### I used the KatadynHiker water filter to refill water bottles and bladders from the Buffalo river which wasvery clean and clear. ###
EDIT: Buffalo River [upper case R] ### and rivers I havefiltered water from hashad very clean appearing water.###
EDIT: have had [rivers . . . have] ### Makes water taste great###EDIT: I should haveflagged this the first time. Strictly speaking the filter doesn't modify taste,but allows the water to filter without adding any chemicals (such as iodine).So "No chemical taste" ### Short hoses makeswater access difficult ###
Edit: Always or just sometimes? If the latter "Short hoses can make wateraccess difficult."
