Need Berkey Help
 
So I did the math, and getting Poland Spring water in 5 gall bottles is too expensive. I have decided to go with a Berkey water system. I need a system that will provide h20 for two adults..we currently go thru a 5 gall bottle of water every week.
I don't need the ability to make 20 gallons on a regular basis. But I like having a method to make h20 without power and to clean up our tap water before drinking it. I'm thinking of this model http://tiny.cc/vmKqM. It says "travel" but should work for regular indoor use, right? Also, I want to get the filters that take out flouride. Any thoughts?

The Berkey Light I got said "travel" also. Yes you can transport it and use it elsewhere besides home. But I don't think it'd be easy to filter water on the go in your vehicle.
I think the Berkey products are worth it.

I was lucky and got a AquaRain 200 on clearance for $87.50. Made in the USA....

I've got the Big Berkey. We use the water for drinking/cooking, and we just fill it up every night (after emptying the filtered contents into a pitcher for refrigeration). We are a family of 6, but my oldest is only 5, so water consumption is probably more like 4 adults.
