Can you drink from these while wearing a helmet and moving or does it spray only?

The answer is yes. I wear a full face helmet, I simply crack the faceplate open and put the tube in my mouth. I close the faceplate a little and the tube stays put without me having to clench my jaw. I do have an aftermarket tube holder that I put on the strap of my tankbag to hold the tube in place when not drinking. Sometimes I just tuck the mouthpiece into my tankbag. It's nice because you don't have to suck, the water flows in to your mouth. I have a second tube that increases the length to about 6 feet, and I have my Geigerrig attached to the side of my bike resting on the passenger peg. I love this system for my bike.

I can drink while running with it, as far as the helmet, as long as the 1/4 inch hose can get in or under it, I should think so. you can spray with fingers from a distance into your mouth, or bite with teeth while in your mouth.....ive done both

Once its ready (a few pumps before starting your ride) just bite down on the valve and drink. The water will shoot into you mouth with no effort.

Yes you could, no reason you couldn't - just place the nozzle in your mouth, close down, and it squirts in. It works without the pumped up air pressure too, then just like a camelback.

They have the adjustment nozzle which can spray both a stream and a mist. The mist was fairly fine as in smaller particles of water.

The flip up water spout work well and yes you can drink directly from the jug. The spout works well as long as you have pulled "all the way" up. If you open it partially, you could get water dribbled down the front of what ever you are wearing. It's not a problem as long as you open it completely. You'll hear a click when it locks into open position and then you are ready to pour/drink.

Good question. I would think if I could wear it for waliking around my shop, I could use it for walking outside. As a shop respirator, it's perfect.....the different filters can be used for either dust, vapors or both. A big plus for me is that it doesn't fog up my glassesn nor interfere with vision.Wind or bumps while bike riding could be a problem. Another possible problem could be the respirator strap, that goes across the top of the head may restrict the wearing of a biking helmet.By the way, where do you live?Joe FroelichLubbock, TX

you can drink directly from the mug while driving, however it is a screw top, not a sliding drinking port that opens the top. so if you are worried about spilling, yes you can spill as the entire top is open (there is a mesh strainer since this is originally designed for drinking loose leaf tea), however if you are worried about leaks from the seal, no I've never had mine leak.

You can... but it's not designed for that type of use. It doesn't have a sipping attachment.

You can drink from any side. Since a lot of people asked, I did a quick video on exactly how it works from any angle: http://www.amazon.com/review/R7XSYK2X6EPDS/ref=cm_cr_pr_perm?ie=UTF8&ASIN;=B0039SLSU6

You would want to put them on your ear after the helmet is strapped on and then it does stay on your ear pretty well. I think it would work with a push button but the benefit of them is voice activated to leave your hands free. If you didn't want that feature so you can control talk time, I think it would work, but haven't tried.

Yes. The advantage is if you fall and knock your head, you can still use the helmet for protection. A lot of helmets are rated for "single blow".

Huh?? Do you mean just wearing the skullcap on its own? Not unless you have a death-wish ... one should always wear the skullcap with a helmet for full protection!

Not too sure about the helmet. I do know that I can wear them while wearing a bicycle helmet other than that. I've not a clue. it is very comfortable I hope this helps

They are designed to use with a helmet, no way to keep them on your head otherwise. NH is a helmet free state also but I prefer the safety of helmet and these units work very well in this configuration.

Yup, you sure can, it's a very concentrated liquid, just shake it up and have a mouth full of water ready to spray it into.I don't enjoy a full glass of it.

It works with a lever that gradually increases the water volume. You push it forward or back. It stays where you set it without having to hold it. I like being able to reduce the spray for the head and face.

Sure. If you live in a state with no helmet law you can any kind of stupid hat you want while you ride. If your state has helmet laws your hat stack will neither protect you nor meet the laughable DOT standards. Seriously, no one should buy this thing unless it is as a joke. It is terrible.

The Pirit seems to be taking off in the RV/Camper/Campground world and we do leave them on all the time. I haven't used one in heat mode for more than a month yet though. You can get other brands but some are not considered safe for drinking "for humans". If I shouldn't drink from them, I wouldn't water my animals with them either.

That depends on your Vehicle's windscreen, the speed you are traveling, and how heavy is the rain. If you are in a full airstream your jaw and throat are going to be in the weather. The glasis beads well and the forehead seal works well , nothing leaks onto my forehead. Back of the neck gets wet, I use a neckerchief to make the seal around the neck and absorb the water runoff from the helmet.
