Klear Self-Cleaning Water Bottle Cap
We mothers are frequently advised to stay hydrated, but does anyone ever think about how clean the water is that they’re drinking? If you’re someone who loves reusable bottles, it’s a very important question to ask!
Many reusable containers are difficult to clean inside, leading to the potential buildup of mold and bacteria. Those dark, moist places are the perfect place for nasty stuff to thrive. Even hand-washing doesn’t always get into the nooks and crannies. Enter Klear, the world’s first and only wide-mouth self cleaning bottle and cap. As its name suggests, this device will clean the inside of your water container for you–without soap and water. It uses UV-C light (the same as what they use to clean in hospitals) to eliminate 99.99999% of bacteria, germs, and viruses that are growing inside your bottle. And all you need to do is fill up your bottle with water, double tap the button, and 3 minutes later it’s all clean. Oh, and in case you were wondering–there is no left over chemicals or anything harmful. Afterall, it’s just light, kind of like the sun. It’s low maintenance and one charge can last up to 25 cycles of sanitation.
