Question about Maxpedition Water Bottle Holder/Thermos bottle combo

[admin]

Hi all,

I’m about to buy the Maxpedition 10″ x 4″ water bottle holder for my computer repair EDC bag (link for those who want to see). I’m really leaning toward a Thermos Stainless King 24 ounce drink bottle from Amazon but according to the specs, it’s 10.3 inches tall. Does anyone happen to know if the Maxpedition bottle holder can be stretched just enough to fit the bottle? If not, does anyone know of another bottle holder besides the next size up that will do the trick? I read through the Q&A on Amazon and there were mixed responses.

I know people are big on Nalgene bottles, so I’d like to explain why I wanna go with the Thermos instead:
1. I’ll be using this water bottle mainly at the homes and offices of clients so I can’t have condensation from a Nalgene bottle leaking through the hole at the bottom of the bottle holder and onto a client’s furniture (Thermos claims their bottle is condensation free).
2. Summer time in South Florida is HOT. Sometimes I can build up a sweat in the few minutes my car’s AC takes to cool down after it’s been parked in the sun for hours. I’ve found that drinking a little cold water can help keep me cool so I show up to the next job not looking sweaty. Thermos claims the bottle will keep cold water cold for up to 24 hours.

Any advice or suggestions would be greatly appreciated as I’d hate to buy this combo only to see it not fit.

Thanks
-Dave
