Does this bottle get a lot of condensation on its outside? I want one I can keep in my bag with a guidebook, wallet, and camera without getting wet.

I haven't tried the vapur with icy cold water, so don't know how much condensation is formed. IMO, the absolute best bottle for cold water is the HydroFlask. I bought several on Amazon. They keep iced water cold for almost 24 hours and there is ZERO condensation. It's heavier than the vapur, though.

I never had much of a problem with it, but I also do not pour very cold water in it.

I put chilled, filtered water in mine...and I guess it depends on how humid the room might be. Inside a building I don't see much at all in the way of condensation. Best water bottle I've ever used, really!

The camera is not dust/drip/water proof. Condensation can occur in situations of dramatic temperature or humidity changes.

yes you get condensation. you have to open the dry compartment and let it dry out

Yes the outside is waterproof, I've been caught inthe rain numberous occasions, and nothing inside ever got wet. It's a great bag, I love mine, hope this helps.

I didn't have any problem with the bottle sweating. The straw does not have a cover but it folds up. I never had a problem with it leaking or anything like that.

I bought this bag for a trip in Europe. It poured on our first day in Warsaw (and I mean POURED) and my camera thankfully stayed completely dry. Highly recommend!

For the occasional drips, yes, youll be okay. Just try to clip it to your sleeve or collar or pocket, anywhere it wont get soaked. Good luck.

Nope. It's thick, and rain drops would not get in easily, but leave it out in rain and it will get wet, and humidity will sink in. With that said, this bag does not feel cheap. It has a nice thick, firm feel. Worth the money, IMO.

It is not waterproof. I was in a downpour without a cover once. It held out for a bit but started getting wet inside. Buy a cover. Other than that the bag has held up for a couple of years and is holding up great.

Yes it does (actually have it in hand and make it leak). For my use it's not an issue since I dont put it in any bag (unless restrained). So it remains always in a normal position. It's handy way to open with a single hand and protected from dust bottleneck is precious on a bike ride especially on dusty busy roads.I remember my old (lost), one hardly leaked. I don't know what happen to the quality. But the design remained unchaged since the 199x patent (I have a copy). Although a little modification would improve, even make it unleakable. I have a Thermos Tritan (same name yes, check with Google) not as easy to open, that doesn't leak at all. Yes it does (actually have it in hand and make it leak).

I've been wearing it as a cover over a down jacket, and my jacket has not been getting wet. I also wore it over a sweatshirt on a cruise ship in Glacier Bay. My camera got too wet to use again, but my sweatshirt stayed dry. I guess I should have used the jacket to cover the camera too.

As long as the rubber stopper is in place and the latch is locked, this bottle has not yet had any leaking issues. On the other hand, if you put in iced beverages, you might worry about the condensation on the outside.

Absolutely. I'm pretty sure all bottles will form condensation on the outside depending on the temperature outside.

The bag kept my items dry in a day long light drizzle but I have yet to be caught in a down pour. The outer most pocket does have a vinyl layer inside the pouch. However, the zippers do not have a cover flap over the zipper so I would probably list this as water resistant rather than water proof. The pack did adjust & carry well and I am 100% pleased with it thus far. Hope this helps.

I live in a very humid climate and used this for the first time during a rain storm a few days ago. I did not get any condensation. Camera was kept dry though. You have to be careful though with your hands as I was using this handheld, I did get some moisture from my hands that got inside. No damage though. I think this product is better used on a tripod than hand held.

It isn't insulated, so it can sweat, but only when coming straight out of the refrigerator. I carry mine around all day and it isn't an issue. The only time there is a film of moisture on the outside is when I get it out of the fridge. I keep several bottles in my fridge at all times and rotate them.
