Platypus HyperFlow Cap Save 12% off

I just received this in my amazon order. I only gave 4 stars only b/c the price seems a bit high, relative to the price of the hydration bottles, and b/c I just started using it. So far, so good though. The packaging doesn''t include directions, so you have to figure out which direction is the lock, but other than that, it''s simple. I like this b/c I found that I really do drink more water when I use a "sip" style water bottle such as my Camelback hydration bottles. But I do love the collapsible and freezable features of the the Platy bag. I find it a bit wonky to use the pop-top nozzle normally supplied with the Platy, and usually just unscrew and drink that way out of it. The Hyperflow Cap basically makes the Platy bag "sippable" from an upright position, and basically collapses the bag right down as you sip, so I imagine there''s less swallowing of air...if you get it right. If air gets in, no problem, just burp it! The bite valve of the cap is way softer and easier to bite than the Camelbak bottles. It hope cleaning isn''t too difficult since there are a few pieces involved with the cleaning mechanism.

This is the perfect companion to the Platypus bladders. I have been using it daily for six months now with no issues. Makes it easy to get a quick drink without spilling water. With a simple twist of the lock you can store your bladder anywhere without worrying about it leaking. Worth $10 for sure.

I''m trying to figure out why there are no directions or instructions included with this product because I can''t figure out how it''s supposed to work, or if it''s already working properly and just sucks. This cap works great until you try to drink. There is no leaking whatsoever. But that''s because it simply doesn''t dispense more than a few drops of liquid when you suck on it. If I fill my Platypus PlusBottle up, attach this cap, and then bite it while sucking, I MIGHT get a teaspoon or two of water. No more. If I wanted to empty this 1 liter Platypus bottle it would take me at least an hour.

I''ve owned a Camelbak before and those nozzles dispense a mouthful of water in mere seconds. This Platypus cap is nothing like that. It makes you physically fight and struggle for water. I would never recommend this product to anyone and I''m hoping I can return mine for a refund.

UPDATE: I figured out what I was doing wrong. Once you screw the cap all the way onto the bottle you have rotate the nozzle counter clockwise to enable the flow of liquid. It would be nice if they had told me that somewhere on the packaging. I didn''t exactly find the cap and nozzle configuration intuitive. I''m still not convinced that the flow is adequate sometimes but that might have to do with the particular bottle I''m using. Overall I''d give this cap 5 stars if 1) it was a few dollars cheaper and 2) if instructions on how to use the thing were included with the cap.

It is OK it does not give a great flow it may just take some time to break in. Used camel paks in Iraq when I was deployed they have a better flow but gravity is on there side. I personally will keep as an extra but would not recommend
