That's one of the things I was thinking. I have several types of filtering systems, not just for redundancy, but because they each do different things.
I originally bought the sawyer I mentioned because I was going on a back country trek through Isle Royale and that is the only place in North America you can still find tapeworms. The standard commercial filters are not small enough, so I needed the .02 micron.
The subject of the thread is good for an "emergency" where you were not prepared and needed to make a filter. But then again, you still need a container, sand, and charcoal. I am less likely to find those than I am my filters in my bug out bag.
