This guy has a working product that can be upscaled to limitless proportions. A product that tells you when it becomes saturated and stops working to protect you. The Disruptor filter is effectively a normal water filter that still needs an actual product to be used with. So while the actual Disruptor filter is less expensive, who knows what cost the actual product will be when it has all the safety features this bottle has are added in? It isn&#039;t fair to compare them, since one is a finished product and the other is a prototype that hasn&#039;t been proven it can work in a safe, mainstream product nor proven it can be upscaled. Plus, it might just be me, but Disruptor seems to be presented much more as a commercial product, whereas this guy actually made it to help people. Not saying he won&#039;t profit, but you could tell the conviction in his voice during the video. </description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>At the risk of now sounding like an advert for the thing (though I am totally amazed by it), I think this guy has Disruptor beat, at least for the moment.</p><p>This guy has a working product that can be upscaled to limitless proportions.
