Which do you prefer, and why? MSR Dromedary or MSR Dromlite? Going to purchase this week, and don't want to buy twice.

I actually use either the dromlite 4 ltr or the camelbak antidote 100 oz... either one works really well for me, only complaint I have with the msr is how the drinking tube sticks out off the bladder at the bottom... may be psycological but i am always worried that i will break it off!

Depends on how you're going to use it. I use the heavier dromedary if I'm on a float trip or car camping and not worried about weight and the bladder is being used/carried/filled daily. If I'm carrying it in a pack as a drinking bladder and it's protected I use the dromlite. Its simpler and slides into small places a bit better without the webbing and grommets and crap on it.

You're probably already aware of them, but Sea to Summit make a pac'n'tap, just to throw another in the mix, has slots on each corner to strap it to your pack.

I've only ran the dromlites for the past 6 years and never had one leak so I see no need to get the black heavier one.

I like the Hydromedary 3L. The hose attachment doesn't stick out quite as far.

I've just used the Dromedary, and it works well. Basically got it cause its tough.
