Interesting product but ....
They say it costs $50 to produce, which means $200 by the time it reaches people.
It produces 5 liters per day, a typical family needs 15 liters (3 liters * 5 people) so they'd need three at a cost of $600.
That is AT LEAST an order of magnitude too expensive for poor rural families,
