Source Tactical Gear High Performance Hydration Reservoir System (Black, 2-Litres)
March 25, 2019 - Comment
A high-performance reservoir for Source Tactical hydration systems, the 2-liter WXP bladder features a wide opening for easy filling, cleaning, draining, and ice insertion. Source’s Glass-Like Film is smoother than standard TPU films with virtually no difference from glass itself, preventing bio-film build up and making the system virtually self-cleaning. And the bladder retains a pure liquid taste with no plastic flavor. Utilizing an FDA-approved and EPA-registered anti-microbial agent, Grunge Guard Technology inhibits bacteria growth on the reservoir and drinking tube surfaces for the life of the system. The WXP comes with the high-flow Storm valve, a push-pull system that’s like drinking from a straw. The QMT valve tip offers the convenience of disconnecting the valve so the tube can be easily woven through tight opening. The 90-degree design allows the tube to be shorter, minimizing excess tubing around your chest and creating an ideal drinking angle. It also comes with a Dirt-Shield protective cover that protects the valve from valve from dirt, sand, dust, mud, and other pollution. The drinking tube’s Cool Weave cover blocks UV light and insulates, keeping your water cool and inhibiting bacteria growth. Source has been a groundbreaker in hydration system technology and is also well known for its tactical gear and hiking sandals. Tested in the most extreme conditions, hundreds of thousands of Source hydration systems are in use in the field.

No lie, these things are tough as nails. I purchased this as a requirement for a 10 hour athletic event. Part of the event (go ruck.com, if you are curious) was to carry a bundle of bricks in a ruck sack. The very same ruck sack that this water bladder would be in. After all was said and done, being tossed about with 40lbs of brick, laid on, dropped without care, and otherwise abused, this water bladder survived where others (looking at you, camel pack) did not. Playful ribbing aside, this is an absolute beast of a bladder, and easy…
Near perfect 3L hydration system When I received this bag, I was pleasantly surprised at the little details I hadn’t given much thought to, but was always annoyed/wary of with other systems. The system can be broken down in to three portions, so I’ll cover those individually.The bag: has a completely smooth surface, heavy duty, a good opening with an easy to grab handle. Hose entry is at the bottom of the bag bag. The smooth surface means water just beads up and rolls off, so you don’t end up with a wet bag when…
Buyer Beware – Product unreliable and Source doesn’t honor their warranty I used this hydration reservoir on a hike to the bottom of the Grand Canyon earlier this month. The hose broke off from the connection to the reservoir as I was putting it in my backpack after filling getting all of my gear wet and leaving me without a water supply at the bottom of the canyon in 120 degree heat. Fortunately, my wife had a reservoir that we could share on our hike back up. I contacted Source Tactical to exercise the warranty but they have been unresponsive despite many…
