The bottle can be charged using a USB cable and one charge lasts up to 2-3 months.The company claims that the bottle cleans 99.99 percent of the bio-contaminants such as bacteria and viruses found in water or the surface of the bottle. It cleans the water in the bottle every four hours (six times a day).The double insulated and vacuum sealed Quartz Bottle can keep the water cold for 24 hours and hot for 12 hours.
