used for a camp shower Used it last weekend on a three day camping trip. I mounted the heater on a simple 2×4 stand with a 12VDC RV Flojet pressure regulated water pump powered by a 12VDC car ‘jumper box’. I made a pvc ‘shower tower’ in a shower tent with a simple wooden floor and hung the spray head on the tower.The heater worked great. Hot water whenever we wanted. Only issue was that sometimes the temperature regulation varied a little. I think next year I will add a standard hot/cold valve assembly…

Amazing very hot shower after some trouble shooting ok, it was a pain to get working, which included replacing the hose connector, but once we got it working it’s amazing. I have a handy husband so that helped. I read the reviews before hand so I knew what I was getting into. But it was soooo worth it for the price. This thing literally supplies you with water as hot as you want it instantly! And as long of a hot shower as you want! You will need a propane tank and a water hose. The specific issue with the hose connector was that it came apart…
