Camp shower water heater.

Ah, ok. Mine is a decent sized plate heat exchanger. I'm curious about the heating efficiency, in comparison.

 

We generally take our showers at night, right before turning in for the night, So I don't believe solar would be a good fit.

 

I've got nothing to compare it to, but with the rig warmed up and the heater at about 3/4, it spits out more or less continuous hot water until everyone in the camp who wants to has showered and done the dishes. At full heater, it's uncomfortably warm.

 

Some solar showers will keep the water hot up to 5 hrs !!!!

 

At this point, I think it's more about proving to myself I can make it work

I think I can, and I think it'll be pretty awesome when it's done.

 

Have y’all checked out the on board water thread? I run the heat exchanger and it works great.

Good call. I hadn't seen that thread. Glad to see the mixer idea isn't crazy. I'll have to actually read it later on after work. Thanks for the link!
