One of the pictures shows a Platypus reservoir, and a couple of answers about the hydration pack indicate that this unit will be somewhat adaptable to other manufacturers. I own the Platypus Gravityworks (2x4Ltr) Is this filter compatible? It would be...

I have a friend that uses the Platypus and the in line filter worked really well for her.

Greg, I am sorry I prematurely answered that question. I meant it is the right filter for the membrane but the pre and post filters are separate--not the same filter. Sorry for the wrong answer.

This is a great filter! However, I wanted it to be connected to it's own dedicated water dispenser faucet. The faucet I got off amazon had a 1/4" male thread end (compression thread) and the filter has a 3/8" male end (also compression thread). To make this connection you will need two parts available on amazon. You will need two Watts brand products: Watts LFA154 Female Compression x OD Adapter 1/4-Inch x 3/8-Inch (Fine Thread) Watts LFPBCC12-44 Ice Maker Supply Line, 12-Inch Took me forever to find these fittings to make it work, but I wanted to save somebody else the time and hassle.

This water filter is so great! It has an adapter that can fix into any standard bottle neck thread. I've tried it to a standard mineral water bottles. Nalgene wide mouth also fit in. It also fit into my favorite Sigg aluminum bottle. Unfortunately, it cannot fit in into the thread of the military spec canteen. Thanks!

No, the filter won't be able to pull the water up into the filter box. You may want to look into getting a Whisper in tank filter. They're made for turtle tanks.

We don't have this particular model.If you mean a water filter then our Gaggia has one.I would check the Gaggia website for your answer.

I don't know anything about a Cat Mate Fountain. I just had the Petmate Fresh Flow Fountain\. Just Like the one on the front of the filter pkg, on the right. And of course, these are the filters I ordered for that. Unfortunately, the fountain stopped working and I now have a Catit Fresh and Clear Fountain.

This filter didn't work out for me. Mine started making noises too. It then stopped working all together. I've replaced it with the Tetra whisper power filter. We have three tanks all using this filter and have had no problems.

You can definitely use this as a gravity drip filter. I went on a 3 day backpacking trip and I had it attached to a bladder and I would fill my bladder with water, pull off the end where I would suck the water from and very quickly use it to fill up my fellow hikers bladders that didn't have this filter. It was great for filling the pots for cooking. It is much faster then the older pump filters. I would highly recommend this system.

I am not 100% sure but the package reads " for use with all replenish gravity waterers " . The packet itself is 2x2, so I guess if your insert opening is larger than that then no. I hope this helped.

Any water feed that works with a float would be fine. That said, this thing leaks.- badly The float doesn't work very well so it doesn't every really shut the water off. In the time I've had mine, I have been unable to find a fix for this problem. I'm replacing all of mine with alternatives that use the type of floats you find in evaporative air coolers.

Mine is a couple of years old so I wouldn't trust measuring our reservoir since designs change over time. The Camelbak websites says "13.5 x 8 in / 34.3 x 20.3 cm empty" and "12.75 x 7 x 2.38 in / 32.39 x 17.78 x 6.03 cm full" for the two liter model which is what I have. Sounds right though the thickest part can be smashed down a little. It certainly isn't the tall and skinny reservoir shown in the photos.....

I do not use, and am not personally familiar with, the ILBE Gen 2 Main Pack, but several of the answers to the same question you are asking about this item in its Amazon.com listing says it is compatible with hydration bladders. One even includes the web address for a video on this topic. I would suggest you read through the information about the ILBE Gen 2 Main Pack on Amazon.com. and hope this referral is helpful to you. I use the Condor 3-Day Assault Pack, which can accommodate two (2) Camelbak 100 oz/ 3.0 L hydration bladders. I stopped carrying two hydration bladders in it to reduce the weight of the fully loaded pack, and use the "extra" space in the hydration section to hold one Camelbak 100 oz/ 3.0 L hydration bladder, its cleaning kit, extra in-line charcoal filter cartridges for my Camelbak in-line filter (to remove "funky flavors" from the water), a Sawyer Products Mini-Filter and accessories (to filter out microscopic "critters" in water from "unknown natural" sources when refilling the hydration bladder), a back-up drinking tube (in case my primary drinking tube gets cut or damaged), a LifeStraw personal water filter, and a military personal reverse osmosis water filtration system. All This extra gear weighs a lot less than an additional 3.0 L of water and hydration bladder, and it gives me the ability to safely drink pretty much any water I encounter and safely refill my hydration bladder over and over. As the old philosopher once said, "Show a man how to carry an extra 3.0 liters of water, and you'll get him through the next day. Show him how to make any water he finds safe to drink, and he will have water for the rest of his life". . . . or maybe he was talking about fishing.

I never put my platypus on a backpack- years ago I bought the 1.8 liter pack and I wore it like a backpack-it had straps like a back pack does so it worked really well. The 3.0 liter pack which I purchased from Amazon a few months back is quite large & heavy when filled and has EYE tabs which you would attach to a backpack. So I would say no it would not fit IN a backpack.

If it's like mine (and it looks like it is), this is compatible with MOST water filter systems, quite easily. That includes most RO (reverse osmosis) systems. I called the company before ordering and asked them, and would suggest you call this company too, to make sure.

Yes it will work as a gravity filter. It works really well too. It will drain a 3L bladder in just a few minutes. I added anothe quick release near the bite valve so I could use it either way.
