Monitor your hydration level be using this simple and easy to use Water Bottle
The Water H, hydration water bottle. The bottle connects to an app on your phone monitoring not only the water you are drinking, but the purity of the water. The TDS, a total dissolved solids, letting you know parts per million how clean the water is you are drinking. The app is available for both Apple and Android users. The bottle charges with the provided pad. The bottle has to be hand washed and has a capacity of 18 ounces.
Although many bottles are dishwasher safe, the dishwasher when it comes down to it, is a poor cleaner of water bottles. The jets inside just don’t reach up inside the bottle to fully clean them. Needing to remove that smell and sometimes a sports drink gunk left behind. Game over for the water bottle, if the kids have left it in the back seat of the car for a day or two with any type of drink inside. Drinking out of a clean water bottle is sometimes hard to do, but not after using this brush and cleaner combo. A little bit of bleach and/or vinegar will help kill germs and bacteria. Hot water and the scrubbing with a brush to get in those hard to reach spots. Pouring a diluted solution of one or two tablespoons of bleach or one or two tablespoons of vinegar in the bottle with hot water and letting it sit for about 20 minutes. Then scrub with the brush, rinse very well and let air dry. Clean the lid and nozzle very well, as bacteria can hide inside the lid too. The Relaj water bottles I use, both the top and bottom are removable, yet I still scrub down the walls of the inside of the bottle. This angle tipped brush is the best I have found that will last a long time.
I have been using the Relaj Shape water bottle for about a month now and am super impressed with it's comfort and features. First of all its ergonomic shape fits in my hand as well as my bike bottle cage, riding in my Orange Mud Hydra Quiver and even fits nicely in my cars cup holder. Its textured outer feel can still be wet, due to condensation, yet won't easily slip out of your hand. What many bottles miss is a valve that stops them from leaking if accidentally tipped. With the Relaj there is a LeakLock Valve that prevents this from happening. Another aspect in which a lot of bottles miss is the ability to be fully disassembled for cleaning. The Relaj fully disassembles for cleaning to get all those hard to reach areas where germs can hide. Both the top and bottom can be screwed off and the tapered flexible spout can be removed. The bottle and pieces can be placed on either the top or bottom rack of the dishwasher to be cleaned, or can simply be washed by hand. The bottle is BPA Free. (BPA is a chemical used in the production of plastics and epoxy resins)
The bottle was designed to use by tipping the bottle up to drink from, instead of the cyclists head, therefore keeping your eyes on where you are going. The squeezable bottle allows for a lot of fluid to be consumed within a short period of time.
The Relaj holds 23 ounces of fluid.
There is an optional re freezable stick that can be screwed into the bottom base, but the Relaj bottles I use do not have these.
The bottle is very sleek and very function-able for all cyclists and those who enjoy the outdoors.
