The stillsuit is the only real survival tool needed in the deep desert. It reclaims lost body moisture and recycles it with such efficiency that only about one milliliter of water is lost per day of desert exposure. A stillsuit is made of black rubber and is totally self-sufficient. Walking and breathing provide the pumping action through the filters. It has several catch-pockets in the upper torso that stores the water, which can be taken through tubes. Cheap knockoffs are available, but they will lose about 6 milliliters or more a day and frequently are improperly made.

Cost: 450 credits.
