NEMO Helio Pressure Shower

[RangerXLT]

Noticed this at REI yesterday. First time I've ever seen the product. From what I've looked at online it seems to be a pretty genuine piece of gear. Didn't know if anyone else had any experience with this.

2.9 gal. (11 liter) capacity to provide 5 - 7 min. of steady water pressure

Use the foot pump to regulate the water pressure

Includes a 7 ft. hose with spray nozzle

Packs down to 5.5 x 8.5 in. in a ventilated, zippered carrying case; weighs only 1 lb. 9 oz.

I have one and it works great. I love the portability and space savings.

thats pretty slick. I havent seen it before either. I usually use a sun shower, mine got a fatal hole last year, I just bought a new one but really dont like the new design. Might see if i can find one of these.

They are available online. About a $100. Not too shabby. I know it's on my list now.

Any complaints? Does it seem to hold pressure for the time it claims?

Someone on the forum had a spare one in the for sale section, IIRC

 

[RangerXLT]

I think it sold. I checked here first and I believe he sold it for $85

I have used one several times and it is great piece of gear. The hose is plenty long and the capacity is good enough for a shower. Only complaint I have is the carry handle is located right above the fill hole for the tank and can be in the way when filling with hot water.

No complaints and yes it does hold the pressure for the time claimed. I got mine for 20% off with the REI member discount.

Was it a promotion they were running or something? I am an REI member as well.

I have one and have used it quite a bit, it's really solidly built for something that is so compact and a reasonable price point @ $100.

Love the concept. Right now I'm using a modified bug sprayer because I camp in cooler climes. Can you heat water in a kettle and fill this bad boy with hot water?

I've topped mine off with hot water many times, making for a nice warm shower and to date, no ill effects.

Every quarter or so, REI sends its members a 20% coupon to use on any item in the store.

 

[RangerXLT]

Hmm. Never received one of those.
