Its not just great for backpackers, but it would be invaluable in a natural disaster where utility services might be affected, best $25 I ever spent.

These things are great. I have one in the truck in my first aid kit, one in my fishing vest, and another in my go-bag.
A small thing to remember: 100,000 gallons is a rough estimate. If you're constantly trying to filter murky water, it won't last that long. But neither will any other filter. I can't remember if you can back-wash these things, but they're so cheap I just figure I'll toss any that start to have issues and break out a new one.
