How long can water be stored in the bladder?
2026896
The packaging doesn't say how long it can be stored, but most of what I've read says about 6 months for tap water. Since this is an emergency supply, I would use this first. I have 2 55 gallon drums that comes with an additive to last up to 5 years. I change that about every 3. So, this should at least keep for 6 months, but I suspect around that time period some of the plastic taste will leach into the water... it's safe, but the taste might be off.

I don't know and don't plan on opening it up until absolutely necessary since it probably won't fit back in the box.You wouldn't use such a thing until an emergency arises especially since it will go in the tub and take up all the space.But for the price I believe it's worth having.

How long one can go between emptying the suspensory urinal or the drainage bag depends on the severity of incontinence. After my surgery I was totally incontinent and had to change pads every two hours. By the time I received the duro med susp. urinal I was only moderately incontinent and used the device without the drainage bag. I could go two or three hours between emptying but usually I needed to urinate more often than that any way. Be advised that getting the proper fit is crucial. They advise trimming the tube where the penis is inserted an eighth of an inch at a time until it fits snugly without constricting blood flow. Good luck!

Depends on what filter you put in it, and how bad your water is. I use it to hold a Carbon Block filter cartridge for drinking water on my kitchen sink! And it's good for about 6 months. If used with a sediment filter, like I said it depends on your water condition. Could last a month, could last 6 months!

4-5 days in my experience, but we usually drink it the day we charge it. It might last longer if there is more water in it.

I'd recommend keeping it no longer than 3 months. The instructions says that it'll stay activated for 3-4 months. However, that doesn't that it'll last that long. If your water quality is really poor, I'd recommend you change the bag out sooner.

Good Luck!

I have used this bladder for just about everything and i have never had it leak on me, so I wouldnt be worried about it as long as the outside of the bladder is dry when you put it in

I would recommend to not hang the bladder by itself when it is full of liquid. I would recommend to carry the bladder inside a small backpack, then hang it from your recumbent. Without insulation, your liquid will get warm/hot in the direct sun, not a good idea.

mine go for 2 months, maybe a week or two less if water is not as soft. it starts to get kind of dirty smelling after that ive found. it could go for 3 months probably for someone else, i could see that.

The bladder is about 11.5 inches long. It's about 7 inches at its widest point, and tapers to about 6 inches.

How slow a leak? I've had a bladder with a slow leak for six months. Just blow it up and (mine) lasts at least an hour. Check it out. I boxed for a few years and if I had a buck for every pro that had a "leaky bladder" in his speed bag, I'd be rich.

two bars which accommodate four bladders each max. Bladders are about 4 lbs filled with water each one.

The unit, with some packing that needs to be removed and two bottles of the solution. enough to last 20 - 28 days per the directions. This is intended to help keep the plastic medium wetted and to keep the unit kleen. I have only had it for three weeks.

Approximately 20 minutes. Urine comes out around 100 degrees. They work though truth be told!

Pretty quick... under 5 min but probably quicker than that... If I remember right it holds residual water so it's probably under a minute... a bunch of drunks use it so it couldn't take all that long ;=)
