Gear Review: Camelbak Big Chill

Saturday, July 18, 2015 5:10

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.

Summer temperatures in Texas can get a little warm. I love my Tervis in the office, but it was just not convenient for my mountain bike. I decided to put the Camelbak Big Chill to the test.

For fun, I rounded up some of my other water bottles to get them in on the action. They were not all the same size bottles, so I used a 16 oz cup to place the same amount of ice in each bottle. I only placed ice in the bottles and just measured how long it took for the ice to melt in each bottle.

At the end of 1.5 hours, ice was still visible in all the bottles. The single wall stainless steel dropped first. Then, my basic water bottle melted. An hour later, my non insulated Nagalene and Stanley were done. Not surprisingly, the two insulated bottles were the only ones still with ice.

The Camelbak Big Chill made 4.5 hours before the ice had all melted. It gave out while the Tervis still had several ice cube remnants visible.

The test started at 11:00 AM and outside temperatures reached into the mid 90′s. The Camelbak Big Chill will not replace my Tervis around the BBQ pit, but it will definitely be my companion on my mountain bike excursions. It might even replace my day hike water bottle.

Staying above the water line!
