Have you been accustomed to such a concept, your outdoor equipment always comes from the outdoor shop, in your opinion although they are expensive and novel, but it is the most targeted choice, but many times, inadvertently you may Found that there are such things in our surroundings that are cheap but practical. The Space Cup is such a thing.
1. Light weight: lighter than a heated water bottle or military water bottle, and even lighter than the same size SIGG/LAKEN aviation aluminum water bottle.
2. Durable: You may think that the transparent space cup looks fragile, but in fact today's Space Cup, whether it is the best NALGENE or a domestic brand with a few dollars in the supermarket, their materials are all PC plastics without exception. . PC is an abbreviation of polycarbonate. Polycarbonate of polycarbonate is English, or PC engineering plastic for short. PC material is actually one of the engineering plastics that we call. As a material widely used worldwide, PC has its own The characteristics and advantages and disadvantages of the PC, PC is a kind of amorphous thermoplastic resin with excellent overall performance, excellent electrical insulation, elongation, dimensional stability and chemical resistance, high strength, heat resistance and cold resistance It also has the advantages of self-extinguishing, flame-retardant, non-toxic, colorable, etc. It can see the shadow of PC plastic in every corner of your life. The features of large-scale industrial production and easy processing also make its price extremely low. Its strength can meet various needs from the mobile phone to the bulletproof glass. The disadvantage is that the hardness is not enough compared with the metal, which leads to its appearance is easier to scratch (the metal kettle will drop the paint), but its strength and toughness is enough to meet the general The need for outdoor sports, no matter if it is heavy or normal, as long as you are not trying to pick it up with stone, it will be long enough. In addition, like the aluminum kettle hits a pit, it will never happen to it.
3, heat conduction: If you do not have a pot, it is difficult to imagine how to hold your monolayer metal kettle filled with boiling water, and in cold conditions it is also enough to ice. The disadvantages of low thermal conductivity of PC plastics have become advantages here. Although the insulation cannot be compared with double-insulated kettles, it is sufficient to ensure hand-held comfort in various environments. Of course, there is no need to worry about not putting paws when filling water. ~~~~~~~
4. Wide mouth: Most single-layer metal kettles are narrow mouths, which is undoubtedly conducive to use during exercise such as cycling or cross-country running, but I believe most people use it to stop drinking when outdoors. Then the wide-mouthed nature of the Space Cup will be able to exert more benefits. Whether it is irrigated or clean, whether it be tea or bubble medicine, whether it is rice porridge or cereal, drinking water can be used, meals can also be used, and even can do each In a solid or powder container, I personally would be happy to use it to carry stored fruit or milk powder. In short, I would like to use it. Even if you need narrow-mouth functionality, there are a variety of convenient accessories and designs to choose from.
5. Transparency: Perhaps this function is dispensable, but the transparent bottle body and the capacity scale display undoubtedly provide you with more convenience and reference, of course, it also can not achieve the unique selling point of certain metal kettles - Anti-corrosion coating, but in fact, I have never imagined and never seen anyone in the wild put the water in the pot for a few days without drinking or replacing it.
6, cheap: domestic brands in the supermarket but a few dollars to a dozen pieces, even the well-known US Nalgene usually does not exceed 100.
7. Shape: You can see all kinds of quirky shaped space cups, round, rectangular, elliptical, with a handshake, the middle of the waist, squats, etc., etc., in short, how to look good how to drink good You can design as you like. Metal kettles can also be processed into various shapes, but some processing costs are undoubtedly so expensive that it is not worth designing as a cup.
8, health: PC plastic itself is non-toxic and odorless, chemically stable, will not react with acid and alkali, there is no long-term use of certain metal kettle intake aluminum excessive concerns.
Domestic, imported, how to choose
Here I have selected 8 space cups as contrasts, 4 different brands of domestic goods (upper row), and 4 US Nalgene (lower row). We believe that through this representative comparison, we can draw relatively intuitive conclusions.
First of all, from the bottle body material, domestically produced cups are all labeled as PC plastics (space glass), and the three lower left Nalgene are labeled as LEXAN materials. In fact, LEXAN is a brand of PC plastic, so they are essentially the same thing. The same is true of the actual texture and tactile intensity, but Nalgene has little advantage in finish, but practically speaking, it has little effect. The milky-white Nalgene in the lower right is HDPE (low-pressure polyethylene) material, which is characterized by more toughness than PC plastics, but the disadvantage is that after loading the acid-acid beverage, it tends to leave a taste and is not suitable for boiling water.
N-Gen is Nalgene's newer product, which is characterized by its new bottle cap design. The annular hole is convenient for hand-carrying while having higher strength, it is also conducive to fast hanging and hanging anywhere, and the bottle caps are covered with rubber to make the bottles fall. Cover strength is greatly increased, there is also a slip effect, the disadvantage is that there are only 750ml models, and the shape of the bottle is too bloated.
The 800ml section of the Guoguang Fuguang is characterized by double bottle caps, wide mouth and narrow mouth, all of which have the advantage of being in the bottle cap. It seems to be designed for people who like to drink tea, but also has a flat round appearance. Suitable for loading or carrying, the disadvantage is that the bottle cap mold process is not good, tightly matched when the tight, although there is no water leakage phenomenon, but not very reliable long-term reliability.
Nalgene's LEXAN 500ml narrow mouth and HDPE wide mouth 350ml models, 500ml models no characteristics, 350ml models designed the finger groove, grasp more stable, looks more angry.
The curious kid (HAOQIXIAOZI)'s wide-mouth 400ml and 1500ml models, these two rectangular exterior design is good, 400ml models easy to pack into the bag side pocket or hanging waist, 1500ml models suitable for temporary bucket or long-distance water storage, Bottle caps and materials are also acceptable.
Nalgene Wide-mouth 1L rectangular water bottle, choose rectangular shape for easy loading into pockets, more convenient to carry
The domestically produced Vekoo 600ml model is characterized by a small attachment with a wide mouth and a narrow mouth (Nalgene's similar accessories can be purchased separately). It is convenient for drinking water and is easy to remove. There are hand shake grooves on both sides of the bottle body. The mold level is also the best in domestic products, and it is a fine domestic product. Of course, the price is also the highest, which is about half of Nalgene's. }
Here only to emphasize the bottle cap, because this is the common gap between domestic and Nalgene, usually manifested as poor material and mold processing accuracy is not enough. For example, this 800ml winner broke his head in a drop test after being filled with water. It was made of ordinary recycled plastic with insufficient strength and toughness, while Nalgene and Vekoo were both polycarbonates.
The processing technology of the caps is the guarantee of water leakage protection. Now the space cups on the market have basically eliminated the use of rubber gaskets for soft and leakproof, because there is a possibility that rubber aging will lose its elasticity. The so-called hard leak-proof is similar to the design of mineral water bottles, screw thread combination, the processing precision of the mold will be very demanding, domestic pots are round face teeth, and Nalgene's triangular or square teeth, leak-proof more reliable Of course, the processing is also slightly more difficult.

Three bottle caps contrast: from left to right for vekoo, Weini, Nalgene, visible vekoo cap process has been quite close to the level of Nalgene
The advanced technology that made the industry more than 50 years ago--polycarbonate is no longer a civilian for civilians, and cheap is no longer cheap, and there has been no breakthrough in metal processing technology for more than one hundred years. As far as the space cups in the supermarkets are everywhere, they are rarely valued because of their excessive price. However, from a practical point of view, its comprehensive performance undoubtedly surpasses the vast majority of single-layer metal kettles, making it an extremely cost-effective choice for outdoor use. In fact, in the European and American outdoor markets, it has occupied most of the share of water equipment, and it is almost one in the high-altitude climb. If the purchase of outdoor water bottles is not just for fashion look or metalworking, then I would rather make a look that is not that beautiful.
