Hot water on the trail - from OZ

That looks like a nice unit, and considerably more compact than the IsoTemp. Nice find.

My only concern with that would be the length of warm shower you would have with the limited reserve. Maybe it would be ok, especially if you are recirculating into a bucket.

I/we have learned to use limited water for showering. (Lucky to have a travel partner who knows how to conserve, without it not feeling luxurious) I have tested this with a primitive Zodi. We can do it with a gallon per person. I will try and set up an easy access switch and quick disconnects somewhere convenient. Trying to stay light and compact.

Let the testing begin :archaeolo

After talking with Kurt from cruiseroutfitters.com he informed me that the Shower kit will heat water approx. 40 degrees hotter than the water fed into it. The Hot water system which I purchased. Will heat water to the temp of the vehicles cooling/heating system - in my case somewhere - 190 degrees/ This unit comes with a temperature control valve and a more complex set up for I/O - The unit will take a few weeks to get to me. I will do a full photo set and write up when I install ;)

Desertdude.....

I've been seeing you write about your new hot water shower thingy.....then I ran across this today.

These people also make a lot of interesting larger tents.....I think VikingVince uses one.

....and!.....they are in my town!

Just thought I would share.

Hey that is a real nice shower set up - I like the hands reaching outside for a dry towel - and the floor system-

I went on a trip last spring that required portable toilet of some type - so I went for the P.E.T pricey but quality and function all in one

Roseanne, you've got it all wrong. The thread is "I hate when I get in trouble". And it is because of these comments and thoughts I am in trouble ALOT!!!!

Besides, even if I did order the shower and girl came with it, Colette would just beat the crap out of her (with the shower) and then take her out for cocktails and tell her she can do much better and that she should go and get both of them a "real" man. hehehehehehe
