What stops (contaminated) water on the outside of the collection bag from dripping into your clean bottle? All pics show bag above clean bottle

MikeMy Sawyer Water Filtration kit as pictured included gaskets that, when the bottle is tightened correctly prevents any contaminated water from entering your clean water container. I have several of these, one in each bug out bag and they are an excellent item. Very reliable. I have even use these on less-than-desirable water sources with zero problems multiple times.

is there a difference in the colors?

No, the color does not mean anything. Although it is helpful if you will be in a group of hikers carrying their own filters, as it helps to identify which filter belongs to which person. But the color does not mean anything.

Could scouts use this esaily and also could you turn this into a gravity filter

It is very easy to use. Just one precaution, Use care not to contaminate the filter like all water filters.It will screw onto any water/soda bottle and comes with a 1 liter bag. I force the water through myself, but you can gravity feed with some rigging. I love mine and is very small for what it can do. If you are using lake or river water in Florida, I would still boil or treat the water to be sure. If you are up in the mountains and have fast moving stream, I would have no problem drink without treating/boiling.

If I add Propel or Gatorade powder to the water will the filter take out all of electrolyte benefits?

I'm not sure. However, you can use the gravity feed bag and put the clean water in a container then add the powder.
