CamelBak H.A.W.G. NV 100-Ounce Hydration Pack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Having owned multiple other Camelbak products since the beginning, I've ceom to expect some pretty rugged build quality, clever features(like the integrated rain hood, bladder hanger, tab for my rear red blinking light, removable waist strap...etc.), and also light weight from their products. This one did not dissapoint in any of those departments. The reason I got this pack was because of the N.V.I.S. system, that allows ample airflow across my back while I'm hiking, riding my motorcycle to work or using my commuter bike, and just for general use. I run hot anyway, and live in the heat, and this is by FAR the most comfortable backpack I've ever owned.

About Camelbak CamelBak is the originator and world leader in hands-free hydration systems. The first CamelBak products proved to be very popular among mountain bikers and motocross riders, because it allowed them to drink without taking their hands off of the handlebars in technical terrain. The product began to cross over into other sports when scientific studies showed athletes drank more fluids and performed better when they wore a CamelBak. Since then, athletes from an ever-growing list of sports and activities use CamelBak hydration systems for their convenience and performance benefits.
In addition to cycling, CamelBak has Hands-Free Hydration systems for hiking, running, snowboarding and skiing. CamelBak\'s state-of-the-art packs and hydration systems have benefited athletes, outdoorsmen, and soldiers around the world. While CamelBak has grown tremendously since the early days, one thing hasn't changed: CamelBak still believes in the performance advantage that proper hydration delivers for just about any activity. The privately-held company is headquartered in Petaluma, California.

Camelbak Big Bite Valve Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I wasn't sure if I could even use this on my older K2 hydration system (still the coolest looking one though) since the tube seemed closer to 15mm outside diameter. but since this bite valve was made of silicone i thought i'd try it anyway. it worked great, seals perfectly and allows a mass of water to come through!
i recommend this one as a good replacement for an older system.

The Camelbak Big Bite Valve is easy to use, just bite and sip. The one piece silicone design includes no moving parts to break. The Big Bite valve self seals after each drink to eliminate annoying drips.

CamelBak Rogue 70-Ounce Hydration Pack Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)The Camelbak Rogue hydration pack is a small backpack that holds 70 oz of water and a has two small areas for cargo. It has a long plastic tube that comes out of the water bladder and ends in an L-joint with a valve. To drink from the tube, you bite down on the blue bite valve and suck on the tube. The L-joint has a valve that lets you shut off the water to prevent accidental leaks. Unlike older Camelbak designs, you can fill the bladder without removing the bladder from the pack, by simply lifting up a flap towards the top of the pack.
Camelbak makes way too many different hydration packs, but this one is my current favorite. Here's what I like and don't like about this one:
1. This pack holds 70 oz of water. Other models hold more and some other ones hold less. I've found that 70 oz is a good balance between too little water and too much water (too much water is too heavy).
2. This pack has 2 small accessory compartments which are the right size for holding keys, sunglasses, cellular phones, MP3 player, and your wallet (and not much else). One compartment is towards the bottom and the other is part of the flap which you flip up to access the filling area for the water bladder. Both are zippered. Camelbak also has a separate phone holder which can be mounted on the front of the backpack straps, which keeps the phone closer to where you need it.
In my view, it has just the right amount of storage for a day outside and reflects a good balance between storage amount and weight.
3. The pack insulates the water bladder, so if you fill it with ice, your water will stay cold for hours. I usually fill the bladder 80% with ice, then add water, and then put into the pack.
4. The pack has padding strategically placed on the back of the pack to allow air to get under your back. This keeps you from sweating directly onto the pack.
5. My only criticism is with the external fill port. Because that filling cap is not insulated like the rest of the bladder, when you have ice water in your pack, water from the air condenses on the plastic screw cap and then runs down the outside of the pack. It also gets absorbed into the flap that covers the fill cap (which contains storage as well). It hasn't been a major problem, but my earlier camelbak packs (which didn't have the external fill port) didn't have condensation problems at all.
