It's the 17oz double wall bottles here (2nd one): http://www.newwaveenviro.com/products/stainless-steel

TOP NOTCH!

It was mostly inside during the day with room temp about 73f degrees. Yay for insulation! Will see how it works in the summer when it's over a hundo.

17 oz.???
Man, i typically drink 1-1/2 to 2 gallons of water a day!
How many of those would I need?

(FWIW, my water doesn't have to be cold, anything below 98.6 F is drinkable to me.)

If it was water and "some ice cubes" I wounder why all the ice didn't melt unless the water was also close to freezing temperature. Even if the water was at 45 - 50 degrees, regular refrigerator temperature, it should have melted the ice after 16 hours. Either there was a lot of ice and little water or OP is exaggerating

um... all of that is very wrong

why are the arctic ice caps not melting into the oceans (nevermind, horrible example :D )

i would think 2 gallons a day, every day, you would dilute yourself to death.

I hate ice water. I like my water just a little below, or at room temperature.
