You can get a top with a straw in the top that is very convenient.

Huh?
I do not see the value in accessorizing my water bottle. In a camping/hiking/bug out situation, all that extra weight adds up too quickly. If you need accessories for a lidded water cup, then you either are not cut out for the outdoors or have purchased the wrong piece of equipment from the start. |

Should have got this - stainless steel, vacuum insulated. I know Nalgene is "BPA Free" now, but who knows what other chemicals are leaching into your drinks from that plastic. Plus nalgene is non-insulated.
They will keep ice water cold (still with ice) for over 24 hours easily. |

A great use for one is a hot water bottle just before bed at night when camping in the cold weather.
Fuel up the body on food or a quick energy snack Take a short vigorous hike down the trail until you are warmed up Pee......and I mean really force yourself to go Put on some clean socks Wear a hat to sleep in Tuck a Nalgene filled with hot water between your thighs in your sleeping bag. Go to bed warm, stay warm. That hot Nalgene is a luxury after that and will keep you toasty. My coldest night out camping was in my hammock. -47* and I stayed very warm.

Congratulations OP!
The best thing you can do with your new Nalgenes is replace them with Gatorade/Powerade bottles. They're a lot lighter.
