50 Pì kono Pocket Cone

The 50 Pi-Kono Pocket Cone is remarkably compact about the size of a lipstick tube when folded. When unfolded, it forms a cone shape designed to channel urine directly into the ground or foliage without any mess or contact with skin. The funnel itself is made from sturdy yet lightweight cardboard (more on durability later), and its construction ensures that there are no leaks or spills during use. The exterior of the Pi-Kono features subtle branding, ensuring a low profile and minimal visibility while you're using it. This design choice is crucial for maintaining privacy, especially in crowded campgrounds or public areas where discretion is essential. The cone comes individually wrapped in paper packaging to keep it clean and sanitary until use.

One of the most common questions about the 50 Pi-Kono Pocket Cone is how durable cardboard can really be for this purpose. We were pleasantly surprised by its sturdiness despite being made from cardboard, it's surprisingly resilient and capable of handling multiple uses without collapsing or tearing. While we wouldn't recommend using it more than a couple of times per cone (for sanitary reasons), the Pi-Kono can definitely withstand some pressure and rough treatment. We tested its strength by attempting to crush the funnel under our hands, and while it did bend slightly, it remained intact. This is largely due to the clever layering technique used in its construction multiple layers of cardboard are glued together to create a robust structure. The overall design ensures that even with moisture exposure (urine), the cone maintains its shape and functionality.

The effectiveness of the 50 Pi-Kono Pocket Cone is undeniable. We tested it in various outdoor conditions from dry desert trails to damp forest floors and found it consistently reliable. The funnel's design allows urine to flow freely without splashing or dripping, ensuring a clean and hygienic experience. Its size perfectly accommodates most women, making for comfortable and mess-free urination while standing up. One thing we appreciated was the ease with which the Pi-Kono can be positioned it rests comfortably against your body without slipping or shifting during use. This is particularly important when you're in a hurry or dealing with uncomfortable conditions like cold weather or strong winds. The cone also directs urine away from your clothing, preventing any potential messes.

Using the 50 Pi-Kono Pocket Cone is incredibly simple even for first-time users. Here's a step-by-step guide:

1. Unfold: Remove the cone from its paper wrapper and unfold it to form a funnel shape.
2. Positioning: Hold the cone against your body, ensuring that the opening aligns with your urethra. You can use one hand to stabilize it while urinating.
3. Urination: Urinate directly into the cone no need to aim!
4. Disposal: After use, simply fold the funnel back up and dispose of it in a designated trash receptacle (or pack it out if youre practicing Leave No Trace principles). The entire process takes less than a minute, making it perfect for those times when you're pressed for time or dealing with uncomfortable circumstances. It's also incredibly discreet no one needs to know what you're doing unless you choose to tell them.
