What ideas do you have about improving or modifying current water bottles on the market today? Do you use your water bottle for anything other than carrying liquid? Let me know!

We always buy Vita Water bottles, nice tough bottles, large mouth and refill at the next water crossing once the drink is gone. We use these each trip and simply recycle once home. Works for us..
I use vinegar bottles. They are designed to be stable under acidic conditions (good for chlorine tablets), are really tough (dropped a few off cliffs and they still were useable) and weigh less than Nalgene bottles (but are heavier than pop or water bottles). I use vinegar at home anyway, so the cost is zero. The quart size is good, fits in my pack pockets. One quart is all I use for a day's hiking. In addition, I take one or two 2.0 liter Plytapus bottle for camp water. I collect water immediately when to camp, and solar heat the water, which really saves gas when cooking.
I use an aluminum 16oz budlight bottle with a old wine cork , for a canteen on day hikes in the event of emergency I wouldn't hesitate to boil water in bottle and its really lite

I have seen, and purchased, aluminum soda bottles. There is also the resealable monster energy drink bottles.
