I bought 2 Lid adapter kits from REI about 6 months ago.

Unfortunately I didn't save the cardboard box it came in and there is nothing on the kit that says what it is.

Anyway, it is a 5 or 6 piece adapter kit that fits on different size bottles and it comes with a drinking tube that works in conjunction with the adapted lid.
I have looked all over for this with no luck.
They were only $6 too.
REI doesn't even have the ability to look up what they were.

Anybody know what I am talking about?

I've been looking for the same thing for a couple weeks now. Some way to turn a nalgene cantene into a hydration bladder and to work with my gravity filter. Can't seem to find any lid that fits a wide mouth Nalgene bottle and that takes a tube. I think the bottle companies have figured out they can sell us much more expensive setups themselves thus selling us the same product twice.

I THINK this will go onto a Nalgene lid. I'll check tomorrow if I get a chance.

Ken,
The wide mouth lid on the kit is similar to the 3 in 1 but it houses a drinking tube.

Specifically,

http://www.bluedesert.co.il/smart_tube.html

The bright yellow cap with blue aeration hole fits a standard 30 mm (PET) water bottle. The light yellow cap is an adapter for a standard 28 mm (PET) water bottle. Connected to the bright yellow 30 mm cap, it becomes a 28 mm to 30 mm adaptor.The approximately 2" diameter blue cap adapts a 63 mm Nalgene, Camelback or Bike or other wide-mouth bottles to the 30 mm bright yellow cap. Tiny writing on the edge of the top of this cap reads, "SmarTube-63". Another 2' diameter blue-gray color cap is used (I assume) to connect the hose directly to a 63 mm opening without the bright yellow 30 mm cap. There are two other approximately 28-30 mm caps, a velcro strap and a tube clip in the kit. I don't know the exact size or what those two caps are for, but they appear to be a 28 mm and a 30 mm.

I do have the box if you have any more questions.

Henry,
You are a life-saver.
This is the company; they just also make a 6 piece kit.

i love this product mainly because while you use platys they need to be turned upside-down.
this not only causes it to back up from the additives moving to the bottom, but also folds over making you to constantly make adjustments.
