DIY PVC Pipe Shower | Roof Mounted
Спорт
In this video, I walk you through how I made my roof mounted DIY solar pipe shower with pressurization option. I made it about a year ago, so I just talk you through the process after the fact. And I also give you my thoughts about it after a year of use and travel with it, including possible improvements.

Correction: I actually got my u-bolts from Pac Fas in Houston, TX. Shout out to them!
I keep a 2 gallon garden sprayer with the hand pump in the van. I replaced the plastic wand with a kitchen sink spray nozzle, heat water on the stove, pump it up and have at it.

Can you do a video on battery set up and things you would change

And my battery setup is pretty simple. A Bluetti that is charged off solar and the power brick via an inverter from the car battery/alternator. My tour video in a couple weeks may answer your questions.
Hello from UK! How long is the pipe?

Hi Jufa! It's in the video. I put a time stamp in the description at 08:56 for length and volume of the pipe shower. You can watch from there!
I think I’d have to go pressurized, gravity can’t clean up my adventures
