Reservoir Dryer, Grey, One Size

Works a lot better than that blue skeleton system you can buy. Took me years to realize how easy this one could be to finally break down and buy it. One part hangs the hose that clips into the hose connection point on the bladder. This part allows you you to have the bag upside down. Other part props the opening of the bladder open to dry out the bag in a day or less. No more mold... as long as you do proper hygiene, too.

Makes drying my Camelback bladder way easier. Highly recommend.

As anyone who owns a CamelBak bladder knows, it can be difficult to get it dry after use. Usually I just wash it and leave it in the freezer until I’m ready to use it again. That’s a much more difficult option while traveling, which was why I bought this reservoir dryer. Overall I liked the product but found a number of pros and cons. Pros: 1) The price is fairly reasonable, although it consists of two simple pieces. I was slightly taken aback when I first opened the package and saw how small it was. 2) On the positive side, the pieces thankfully don’t take up much space or add significant weight to luggage. 3) The instructions were basic but relatively easy to understand. 4) The actual hanger piece was perfect. It snapped into the hose connection valve and I felt confident it was secure. Cons: 1) The expander piece meant to be hooked to the mouth of the bladder occasionally fell out onto the floor. It was both annoying and unsanitary given it had to be placed inside the bladder. 2) The hanger piece had a half circle meant to hold the hose. I tried to use it, but the opening was too large for the hose to snap into it. As a result, the hose kept falling onto the floor. Yet another annoying and unsanitary moment. Overall I liked the product, despite its flaws. I would recommend it to others, but with a warning that it won’t be the end-all and be-all.

Figuring out how to use the piece to hold the bladder open was a bit challening however finally figured it out. The bladder works great with no issues so far. Amazingly worked OK with another brand (Osprey) of hydration vest. Only negative is the hose is too long for this minature sized adult.

I bought three of these for the three Camelbak packs that we have and they are all doing exactly what they’re meant to do. No, it won’t keep your pack drying if you decide to put this outside and let winds knock it down. Use common sense and hang your bladders and hoses to dry INSIDE and once you insert the thingy that goes inside the bladder to keep it open, leave it alone and guess what will happen? It will do its job! One little hack I can offer is that if you remove the bite valve from the hose, you can loop it into the tab that keeps the bladder open. A lot of people also are quick to not realize how nice this little contraption is in that it comes in two parts that snap together for easy, low profile storage.

It didn't come with any instructions. I had to look at other reviewers' photos to figure out how to fit the piece into the bladder... and it doesn't seem to fit in my daughter's CamelBak Mini MULE. You can sort of shove the piece in straight and it might fit, but it seems like it will eventually poke through and ruin the bladder because it's so tightly wedged in there. Ironically it also falls out if you so much as breathe on it, and then the bladder closes up and remains wet. The entire thing is quite flimsy. Its going back. I might try getting her a BonDry next, since that's what I have for my Osprey 2.5 LT and it seems to work pretty well so far.

Yes, it’s a bit expensive for a piece of plastic, but it does the job for my 3L reservoir. It’s not flimsy, clips into the clip perfectly and spreads the reservoir for easy drying.

This is an expensive set of plastic pieces but it does exactly what it needs to do and works so much better than what I was doing with it before. It seems nicely made and durable. Highly recommend. I wish I bought this sooner.

Idea para mantener la bolsa de hidratación abierta para facilitar secado. No le pongo 5 estrellas porque para algunas formas de bolsa Camelbak cuesta un poco que se mantenga la barra separadora.

これがあるかないかで 乾燥の度合いが違う

Good bit of kit works well instructions not very clare

Possedendo una Camelbak da 3 litri, il problema di farla asciugare correttamente è veramente fastidioso. Con questo semplice accessorio che ti permette di appendere a testa in giù la sacca e di tenerla aperta, il problema è risolto. Ho solo notato che il tubo, anche appeso, fa fatica ad asciugarsi completamente. Lo ricomprerei sicuramente, anche se il prezzo è veramente ingiustificato per due pezzi di plastica.

Great little gadget for drying your Camelbak bladder after cleaning.
