IBC Shower tote

[TeeDee]

I may be building one of these - Have the IBCs already and need to make it ready for early next year.

My main question is as its a bit of a mash up is how best / easiest and that worse of words 'safest' way to get hot water provided and delivered in a controlled manner as to avoid the "freezing cold-turn the knob 3mm-instant scalding stream of lava" type feeling we all enjoy and love.

Now I know there are plenty of clever gadgets available - so what would be the quickest and easiest fix?

I'd imagine i will have access to electricity but possible that I don't .

Any heaters that work straight from a Gas bottle ?

I looked at stuff like this for down in the Shepherds Hut - but decided against it

What did you go for instead ? if anything?

We decided that down in the wood there was no one else around to worry about any smell

Yup, propane fired power shower. Be sure & choose one that can run on 12V & get the highest possible flow rate

These are Solar Showers? If so , thanks - had thought of that but I do need this to be a decent shower capable of showering early hours and late. Not peak midday sun unfortunately.

These solar packs are somewhat useless in these higher latitudes and anyway non stationary. I have been looking for the bag to be able to take boiling water so I can then mix it with colder for comfortable temp, I know I can do it putting hot into cold and that is a bit easier for the material but it still has to take 100C for a short while. About 5l is enough for trekking purposes, I guess 10l for stationary.

MSR dromedary's can take boiling water. Says on the right here...

Thx, good find, I only searched for shower systems so this did not come up. Now I just have to find a fitting hose and shower head.

MSR used make a shower kit for them, seems discontinued.
