Simple Shower

- Start date
I just ordered one of those cans, so hopefully I'll get it in time for the NW Overland Rally. Anyone attending, I'll have several Simple Showers set up in a variety of configurations. I'm also considering offering free showers to people wanting to test out the Simple Shower - we'll see how that works out 
(when I say free showers, I mean the use of the Simple Shower, not a free Simple Shower). I'll know more about that when I get set up and talk with Ray and the other organizers.

I love it, let's make that happen.
Do you have a shower mat like the ones that Jeremy at Expedition Ops makes?

That will keep the area where people shower from getting muddy.
I tested out my Simple Shower this week and I really like it, much better than just punching holes in a bottle lid.
In fact it takes a little getting used to if you are used to a lid with holes in it. The flow is so efficient that you just need to tip it over you for a few seconds to get enough water where you need it, so if you are used to the old way, you can quickly go through the whole water bottle.
I might bring my solar oven along to the Rally this month to warm up a bunch of bottles simultaneously, since I have a family of 5.

I used the simple shower and I think it's perfect. I'd like combine it with a rear hatch shower stall like this, but at about a third the price. http://vehiclecanopies.com
Shower curtain and bungee?

Maybe try Todd Askins over at Tactical Distributors/ADS to try and get into the contract relm?

Scheming on that idea for a while myself, Tom. I think something roughly U-shaped that fits the shape of the upper door then telescopes or pivots out to extend out more would be very easy to make, then combine with a regular opaque shower curtain liner (or something exotic and lighter-weight like silnylon, etc.)
Will have to decide if/when I ever get the hot-water system installed...
NW Overland Rally!
Okay folks, now's the time to test out the Simple Shower. I'll be at the NW Overland Rally this week, and we're giving free test runs of the Simple Shower. Bring your own 2 liter bottles and you can test the Simple Shower by taking a shower for free (the test is free, not the Simple Shower ). We'll require a refundable deposit when you test the Simple Shower (the deposit will be the same as the cost of the Simple Shower, so if you like it, and want to keep it, you can).
Looking forward to meeting many of you!

Simple Shower = Simple Mod
JJust got 2ea in the mail from Preppers Warehouse. Tried 1 out and it works great. Being that I tend to be a bit of a miser on the water consumption when I'm camping alone, I immediately had to do a cheap mod to it. I taped off the outside holes with electrical tape. I find it still provides an excellent amount of water and pressure resulting in the shower lasting more than twice as long since the amount of drip holes was cut down by 70%. It's well worth with the extra .02 cents of electrical tape that was added to the cap to stretch out the water consumption. Thanks Geodoc !!! Its an excellent product that seems well made!
