I don't know. The combi I bought is still in the box bought in case of an emergency.

I believe the actual micro filters are the same, but the endurance has an extra attachment to store water. My son used his own water container and is very happy with the combi micro filter.

There is no difference except for the price, every thing shown on the endurance picture is included in the regular combi for less price direct from Amazon.

Dont know about the other one however am happy with it works well and is durable. After reading the reviews now understand why some said almost better not to know what you can find! :)

This listing is for the S12q-pa Sterilight UV system 12 gpm. Looks like one of the other sellers of this edited the title for some reason. Kind of odd as that sleeve is not even for this unit. If you buy this, you the the 12 gpm UV system, not the 8 gpm sleeve. MarkAFW Filters785-735-9769

It's for one filter but it can last a long time, depends on its use and where you have it. I have had other air purifiers, less expensive, and did not have the same relief as I do with the IQ air, so the price has been worth it.

According to the katadyn website, the hiker series (hiker and hiker pro) filter down to .3 microns. same as what's on the box. I know it's kept me from at least one round with crypto, after hiking with friends. I used my hiker pro, they didn't. about the time we got back to civilization they got very sick. good filter.

The product should state it in the comments or title, and the price reflects if it is truly a multi-pack. There have been errors in the title but the comment section is where I have had to type in the correct quantity even though pricing reflects correctly. My supplier is currently out of stock on the multi-pack for the #8 filters which is normally 2 packs per order. I hope this helps. Thank you.

The only difference is price. I bought the cat first and then the small because it was cheaper. The products are identical and use the same filter.

They are both P100 filters "NIOSH Approved - At least 99.97% filtration efficiency" but you should check 3M's website for exact info. Link below you'll find docs and specs on each. http://solutions.3m.com/wps/portal/3M/en_US/3M-PPE-Safety-Solutions/Personal-Protective-Equipment/Products/Product-Catalog/~/Cartridges-Filters-for-3M-Half-and-Full-Facepiece-Respirators-6000-Series-7500-Series-7800S-Series-and-FF-400-Series?N=3294355784+3294529207+8690968+5549793&rt=rud

Both are rated for the same particulate filtration (0.2 microns?) and claim to filter the same amount of water (up to 13k gallons if I remember correctly). I have had my hands on both and I can say I'm glad I purchased the combi. The down side is the warranty is not as long. Oh and the combi has held up well in a pack, use on the trail, or camping.

This is bizarre. I just got a microwave\convection combo. On page 7 of the operations guide under optional kits it says JX81D Circulating Charcoal Filter Kit. On page 29 (maintenance) it says WB02X10943.... So they must be at least somewhat interchangeable. Since this one is $7.08 and the other is over $25 I know which one I'm getting.

Can't seem to find any difference between the two. Both come with 2011/136x/115x part. Both look visually the same, both have the same pump. Perhaps just a different naming code from the factory? I would buy the $50 one. I have it, and it runs like a beaut.

Cynthia, I believe they are the same. Maybe the 2 in 1 is referring to (1)diffuser and (2)humidifier? I checked the box and it states that it's a 2 in 1 diffuser. It works very well for me to diffuse essential oils. It actually works best if the water reservoir is not quite full. I previously used a Young Living diffuser but it only lasted about 8 months so I decided to try this one since the cost is much less. Hope this helps.

As far as I can tell, just so the filters are the "cone" type I don't think it should matter about the brand. I bought the Melitta filters because the price was so good on Amazon and I bought enough for that super saver shipping! But, if you can find a picture of this cone type of filter (try Google images), then you could take the pic to the store and see if you can find a different, less expensive brand. (Maybe that's what I should have done!!)

Filters last different times depending on which one. Yes they are expensive. The most expensive is the main HyperHEPA filter which is around $200 and it lasts the longest. The PreMax is about $125 and lasts the shortest. The V5 is optional-it just absorbs odors-and lasts in the middle somewhere I think, it is around $100. The length the filters last is kind of governed by the unit itself. If you have it on more often, it will use it up faster. If you have it on higher speed, it will use up the life faster. You can scroll through the display for remaining hours on each filter. There is no stopping you from using filters longer or resetting the filter life at any time if you want to, but I always replace the filters according to the unit telling me to. To give an idea of life, I think the HyperHEPA will start out around 4000 hrs. Looking at mine right now, it shows the PreMax at 599 hrs, V5 at 2057hrs and HyperHEPA at 1599 hrs. It ABSOLUTELY has helped me sleeping and not waking up with a stuffy nose every morning. I would buy it again even if it was 3x the price. One tip is they make a prefilter prefilter called the PF40 (I know it sounds redundant but bear with me) which is for really dusty conditions. You can put the prefilter screen on the bottom at the air intake and this will pretty much double the life of the actual pre-filter. You can then change the filter screen as the kit comes with I think 5 of them and reset your pre-filter timer.

I have used these before, but prefer the Katadyn Micropur Water Purification tabs. I know Katadyn are push through packs and do last. I treat water for 20+ people in Africa with the Katadyn tabs every year and double the process with a Katadyn filter for safe measure.

I personally would refer to the company that makes it than just someone who has purchased for more accurate information. Take a little time and do your homework and feel confidence that your investment is not at risk of performance. There are different kits to properly care for your filter. A pamphlet came with my filter. Best practices is to be inform with facts. Happy cleaning of a great product.

Hello Mark, I am not sure but in using this product it did not have the heft other filters have. It was a bit flimsy and you may want to use two together for better results. At one time I had bought a case of good pre-filters on ebay but have yet to find that brand again, tho I have not made a a thourough search as yet. Hope this helps.. :)
