Hot camp shower

[rusty_tlc]

I picked up a Zodi Hot Man Fire Coil on Friday from the local outdoors store. Apparently it was discontinued several years back and they didn't realize they had it.

Anyway, we used it over the weekend and it worked great. You just hook up two water jugs, or in our case a water jug and a solar shower. Place the jugs at different elevations, place the copper coil in the coals of the fire and turn on the water. It took us two passes throught the coil to heat it up to where we liked it.

Unfortunatly, after doing a search, I was not able to fine any additional information.

Would you post a picture of that by it self? It looks like something a guy could fab at home with a few bucks worth of stuff from Home Depot.

A guy could also mod one from an existing wort chiller he has in his garage...see I knew homebrewing could come in handy someday :friday:

Here are the close up pictures:

This would not be hard to make at all. The diameter of the largest coil is 8". I figured I could not pass this up for only $19.

Michelle and I have used the Coleman Hot Water on Demand system inside our Paha Que shelter with great success. It comes with s shower attachement and we can use it for camp cleanup too. Only drawback is that it is quite bulky.

For those who like to spend less money try a stainless steel Hudson or similar weed sprayer from one of the plant nurseries, for a third the cost;

x2. Why get a zodi when you already have the stove? Get one of these, slap a kitchen faucet side sprayer with a 6th hose and you are set.
Take cool showers in the hot summer months or place SS sprayer on top of stove during the chilly fall/winter days for a hot shower... just don't leave it on the burner for too long...
