tcolberg commented on UPDATE: Primo's VP Of Marketing Responds To The Incredible Shrinking Water Bottle, at 4:00 PM on Jul 25 In terms of the question of whether the bottle will shrink and leak when full depends on the reason of why the plastic shrinks, whether by heat or by some other method. If the plastic shrinks in higher than normal temperatures, then a full water bottle would not shrink because the thermal inertia of water will keep the plastic that it is in contact with at a lower temperature than the ambient temp of the car interior. It also doesn't seem likely that UV exposure is a candidate as the interior of a car is generally well shielded from UV by the auto glass. more » [consumerist]
