How does the MSR Miox work?
First, you place a small amount of salt in a small chamber at the top of the unit, then pour a quarter teaspoon of water into another chamber below. After tilting the purifier a few times to mix the salt and water, you push a button on the side, which activates the unit so electricity can change the salt and water into a mixed-oxidant solution. This is not chlorine! You press the button multiple times to purify larger volumes. You have to keep an eye on a set of lights on the unit to ensure that your salt/water mixture is adequate for purification. See the water purifier information page for more.
