[pct-l] AquaClip Update

[Hiker97 at aol.com]

I got some free samples of the  AquaClip water bottle holders (AquaClip.com) 
to test.  It holds a 16 ounce  (store bought) water bottle easily.  Each clip 
weighs .4 ounce.  So,  that is not too bad at all.  They come in colors and I 
like the bright  orange color best.  It would be harder to lose out there on 
the  trail.  I will test it out Saturday along the south rim of the Grand 
Canyon  with my waist pack belt system and report back to you after the expedition 
is  over the following Saturday.
 
Initially, it looks like it  would be easy to just lift it off a belt and 
return it after a drink.   Also, the clip holds the bottle firmly, so I do not 
think there would be any  accident of it the bottle coming lose while walking.  
I also wonder how  heat and cold would effect the clip.  Cold often makes gear 
brittle, and  heat makes things soft.
