WARNING: Do Not Drink From Non-PEM Bottles
Standard electrolysis (used in cheap bottles) splits water (H2O) + Salt (NaCl) into Chlorine Gas (Cl2) and Ozone (O3).
| Feature | Safe Bottle (PEM) | Dangerous Bottle |
|---|---|---|
| Technology | Solid Polymer Electrolyte | Standard Electrolysis |
| Gas Vent | Yes (Bottom Exhaust) | No (Mixes in Water) |
| Smell | Clean | Bleach / Pool Water |
The Smell Test: If your water smells like a swimming pool after a cycle, STOP drinking it immediately. You are drinking bleach.
