Interesting idea, but there are already companies that make and sell water (water fillable) weights for travel, sometimes called portable weights or aquabells. They are usually made of a soft vinyl, like an air matteress, much cheaper than blow molding a hard plastic. Obviously they already have the technology to do it. The ads I have seen say things like "fill to whatever weight you want, up to 16 pounds" or some other customary unit, but I only looked at a couple of US website Al Lawrence

I have sent the message below to several bottle manufacturing companies, but so far, they all say they cannot help me. I think Water Bottle Dumbbell Weights would be a great way Americans can learn a relationship between volume and weight. I would appreciate any ideas you send my way. Thanks. I have an idea and perhaps you can help. I want plastic water bottles in the shape of dumbbell weights (in metric-only units) with my company name (MetricPioneer.com). Ideally, the fully functional dumbbell weights would be empty so one could fill them with water, for example four liters of water makes a four kilogram dumbbell (4 L water = 4 kg weight). I would consider smaller sized Water Bottle Dumbbell Weights, perhaps 3 L / 3 kg or even 2 L / 2 kg sizes or even a 1 L / 1 kg size. Please give me a call and let me know if you can customize this product for me. Thanks. David Pearl www.MetricPioneer.com 503-428-4917
