In reply to Solvatten Solar Jerrycan Purifies Water Using Nothing But Sunshine
Hmm, people in developing countries have been doing this for years, using nothing more than PET bottles. This is called SODIS, and is recommended by the WHO as a viable method for water treatement.

What's the point of producing a product that's targeted at people who barely have enough for food, and already have a viable, just as good, free alternative?
