Smart Water Bottle

The water bottle that has finally managed to train me to drink more water.

Why I Love It

I am terrible at remembering to drink water. I can have a bottle sitting beside me all day and somehow completely forget it exists. My HidrateSpark changed that because it lights up when it’s time to drink.  The funny part is that I can see it flashing from across the boat. Inevitably I look over, laugh and realize that, yes, I really haven’t had enough water. It’s a simple reminder, but it works for me.

Why It Works on a Boat / How I Use It

Every morning I fill my bottle and keep it nearby throughout the day, in my office, on the aft deck, with me in the dinghy and beside the bed. It has become part of my routine.

I also think everyone aboard should have their own reusable water bottle. There are fewer glasses to wash, no pile of disposable plastic bottles, and everyone knows which bottle belongs to them.

What You Should Know

My HidrateSpark uses a sensor to track how much I drink and connects to the HidrateSpark app through Bluetooth. The app records water consumption and lets you manage hydration goals and reminders.

HidrateSpark has produced several generations of smart bottles, so features, batteries and care instructions vary by model. That’s worth checking against the particular bottle you’re buying rather than assuming every HidrateSpark works exactly the same way.

Would I buy it again? Yes. Mine has absolutely earned its space aboard.
