Bigger than it looks
The pen itself is little bigger than it 'looks' on display. Nevertheless it's an excellent piece of technology, affordable and easy to use.

Product exactly as described. Fast Shipping.
I recieved the product super fast, despite the Free Shipping claim. I was very please with the ease of use. Although the seller has no negligience, the manufacturer should probably update the product so that there are 2 buttons for the 8oz and the 32oz, also should come with some sort of adapter for smaller cups that the light bulb's water sensors dont get covered in (therefore no light turns on). It's pretty much you better have a big enough cup for the light bulb.

Super water purifier
I let my daughter and her boyfriend use my Steripen while trekking in Nepal for 3 weeks. Since bottled water was expensive and hard to get at the higher elevations they Steripened all water on the trek. The water sources were creeks and any other puddle they could find. If you have ever been to Nepal you know how polluted water sources can be. They never got sick, but did report many others getting sick while using iodine tablets. Iodine does not kill viruses and Crytosporidia so you are taking a chance with these pills in many international destinations. They also used it for 4 weeks in India without any problems. For longest battery life use Lithium.
