Personally, I enjoy the changes to the water. It's a much healthier system of getting water. Before, we would make 200 glass jars and once a week someone would do a "water run" to a hole in the ground. Then, the campfire would just spend 10 years boiling it all. The jars were annoying as all get out and I'm glad they're gone. With that said, could they tweak the dew collectors? Yes. Maybe you have to change the filter every so often? Maybe after like 30-50 jars or something.
