camping shower

Hi Undertaker Where did you get your adaptor hose?
The camping store where I got mine doesn't have them.
So far I reckon it's a great unit although haven't used it over an extended period, but that will change when we go to Mapoon in May
Cheers Poppy

KMart have the adaptor hose.
KMart also has the Coleman unit on special for $239.00
The great advantage of the Coleman it is instant and takes virtually no set-up and hot water can be used from drinks to washing up to showers easily.

That'd be between 2 and 3 lpm then - gotta say I like my sureflow 12lpm ;-)

(I've got a lot to get showered!)

Yeah Ivan , Great, but it would be a mighty cold shower at that flow!!!!
Michael.

Well that would depend on how capable your heat exchanger was ;-))) (mine works at that rate)

Glind shold be called 'Pain in the Butt' compared to a Coleman

Have you had a bad experience??

Luxoluk I found them a total and complete pain. Firstly had no end of problems with leaks and they eventually replaced the unit. However, the major issue was you had to run the vehicle at mid-range revs when the engine was cold and you wanted hot water, and overall ended up more of a pain hooking things up, getting to the water etc. etc.

With the Coleman you have instant hot water at the flick of a switch for hot drinks, washing up, showering etc. Other major advantage with the Coleman, you can take the hot part to the water, instead of the other way around. There are many taps around and other water outlets that the Coleman can easily be carried that you cannot get the car close enough even with hoses.

Hi David. I appreciate that the Coleman suits your purposes. For the desert trips I have found the Glind really good and just about to C/o and refit to new diesel. Haven't had any difficulty and certainly no leaks. I believe the glind does not operate well where there are air leaks but I have set mine up tight. All I do is pull out a jerry and screw on the shower hose and I'm away...heaven!! I must admit things can get ugly when I don't use a shower tent!! Cheers

Bunnings even have a better shower head than one of those cheap 12v jobs. That is what I used first and then bought one from Bunnings for (scratching head) $9.90. The Bunnings one uses less water and gives better shower.

You can also recycle the water.

Seen someone use a small inflatable pool to stand in , and another, one of those large 100l plastic tool boxes (about $25 from Supercheap).

I prefer the Underbonnet ones for our use (6 people).
