DIY Gravity Filter with a Katadyn Hiker Pro Filter. I had a Katadyn Hiker Pro water filter and decided I would rather have a gravity filter. I looked online and found a simple modifaction to change my pump into a gravity filter. I decided to make a video to show how it is done.
It can be made from many different materials but mine is made from a Katadyn Hiker Pro filter, the top of a 32 oz wide mouth nalgene, a hose clamp, the hose from the Katadyn Hiker Pro and a Sea to Summit UltraSil Nylon – 8 Liter bag. Additional mods were some Kelty Trip Tease cord, a cord lock and a 2L soft canteen (Lowe Alpine).
The flow rate (per Katadyn) is 1 Liter a minute
The Katadyn Hiker Pro filters to .3 microns
