When the water cell arrived I tested the bag and was disappointed with the chemical taste of the water, although not surprised as I had read the reviews before purchasing. I filled with warm water, placed the juice of one squeezed lemon inside and swooshed. Then I added 2 large tablespoons of bicarb, screwed the lid on and left it sitting overnight. The next morning I rinsed well and no more chemical taste. Yay!
Thats a very common solution!
Thanks for your feedback.
Does the bladder leak
G'day Barry,
No. I've had mine for almost 2 years now with no issues.
What are the dimensions of the opening? Hoping to insert a 42mm shower pump
G'day Stepho,
The Watercell bladders have a 63mm mouth.
Hope that helps!
Can water be frozen in it?
G'day Marty,
If you want to freeze water in these bladders I would recommend only filling to 50% capacity, and making sure the bladder can lay flat in the freezer. The Watercell has internal baffles, and is seam welded, so will be damaged by expanding water during the freezing process.
Whilst you technically can freeze water in it, I would say it's better to be on the safe side if you dont.
can 2 or 3 of these be stacked on top of each other?
G'day Nadine,
There's no information anywhere to say that you can't, but I stack mine all the time with no issues!
How strong is the handle? Do you think I could I hang this 10L from a lantern hook all weekend to use as a kitchen tap or would that stress the handle too much?
G'day Karen,
I hang my 20L Watercell X Bladder off a thin cross pole whilst I'm away, and have also hung it off the above door passenger handle thingy in the front of our van without any issues. I was skeptical at first, but I've hammered ours and it's held up to everything thrown at it!
Has anyone had any issues regarding a plastic taste to the water? At least in the first few uses? Thankyou
G'day Denise,
There's a few of us in the office with these Watercell X bladders, and only one of us has had issues with taste.
Ben (who has had the taste issues) uses normal tap water, whereas the rest of us use filtered water.
We have pondered whether or not the added chemicals in the tap water somehow interact with the Watercell lining. No other explanation really - also, not sure how WA water compares to SA water!
Ben has had some success cleaning the bladders out with bicarb and lemon juice, which appears to have remedied the situation.
Hope that helps!
I have had this problem, to the point I can't dink the water. I have used filtered and the strong plastic tase is next level. I have tried everything to get rid of it, Soaked in Lemon, Bi Carb, Dentures tablets. Nothings seams to work.
We've had updated feedback from a customer to suggest the best option is raspberry cordial & soak for 24hrs - from most reports it's a roaring success. You may have a slight taste of the cordial the next use or two, but its a significant improvement.
Could this be used to heat to water by leaving out in the sun on a hot day?
G'day Jo,
The Watercell X hasn't been designed to heat water, however being a darker colour material, the water will likely heat up a bit during the day if you leave it out in the sun.
