Anyone know of a good place to get some 1/4 in. silicone drinking hose? I need a replacement for my hyperfilter and MSR wants $15 for 4 feet of it. Thats way too much for me.

They have a lot of options. For starters, try product #51135K28
Cheers,

You'll have a lifetime supply for you and all your friends.
