plastic water bottles and Steripen (UV)

I have just started using a Steripen to treat my water and was wondering about the impacts of the UV on plastic bottles? There is a trend to BPA free plastics for drinking bottles,bladders etc, but I still think blasting it with UV several times a day is going to impact on the stability of the plastic in the longer term??

Ive had no problems with mine. Been using the same one for two years now.
