Has anyone used them in a water bottle with a straw inside? Like Camelbak style? Can you fit several in there?

That would depend on the size of your opening. They are 1 in square and approximately 1/8 to 1/4 inch wide in the middle when frozen. When frozen they look like mini pillows - fat in the middle and tapered at the edges.They are very flexible when not frozen, so you could put them in and then freeze the whole bottle. They would easily work in a Polar water bottle. I have never used a camelbak so I am not familiar with the size of the opening.

I have never done this myself. The only problem I can see would be getting them through the opening once they are frozen. If the opening is big then no problem.

I haven't tried one of those straws but they should work as long as they are a tall straw.

I don't know how wide the mouth is on your water bottle, so I can say maybe. One you get out of the cooler like Dasani or Evian, no. A reusable bottle, yes!

They sit inside and don't attach..fits well in the bottle. I keep it separate since I use bottled water. The cap is two pieces and it is tight fitting

Molly, I have not used them in water bottles, I have an acrylic glass with a screw on lid and that works great.

Yes, you can! I just checked it out... I could easily fit one of the Starbucks reusable straws in there, and I'm sure an even larger one would work just fine.

I would say yes, but haven't tried with a straw. There is not a specific opening for a straw.

No you can't. The way the bottle holders are shaped a regular water bottle wouldn't fit in. The holders are kinda squared.

I'm going to have to look into that. Althought I have not used the straw yet I can only go by the ad an it's Covent size. Thanks for your question anjave a blessed day . If you have any concerns about the straw I would just go with the life straw especially if your hiking overseas.

Straw does stay in the bottle and its easy to clean. The straw pulls out easily and is also easy to put back. Best water bottle I have ever bought and wish I could find another one somewhere local cause I'd get about 4 more. Only possible drawback is that if you don't push the spout back in far enough it could leak if on its side.

Yes, since they are wider in diameter than regular straws! We highly recommend these! Along with a straw cleaner to make sure they eat thoroughly clean!

They should fit in the bottles with no problems. I know ours could. They are standard glow stick size. Hope this helps!!!

They measure pretty exact to .25 I use them in several different types of the double walled insulated cups and they fit well. You will probably need to measure the old water bottle straw if you still have it or the hole it fits in to be sure. Hope this helps.

The straw lid that is available will not fit this bottle. Ask me how I know. :( I talked to EcoVessel, and they said they are working on a universal straw lid, but it not out yet.

I wouldn't recommend drinking them with anything that might burn your lips. The straws easily become the temperature of what you are drinking, so I'd be careful.

A drinking straw would be to large. I found a small rubber tube like they use for oxygen in the hospital, the part that goes around your head may work if you remove the cup part of the unit, it is removable for cleaning just insert the tube into the end of the unit it will work, the only problem is will your bag hold the seal. Hope this helps you, good luck.
