FINALLY a good, thorough, and fair review. I bought this the other day (still waiting on delivery), like everyone else I'm concerned about water pressure, and battery time. These two questions were addressed in this video. I'm anxiously awaiting my delivery. Great job, two thumbs up....gotta love the dawg.

Thank you, Michael. Sure do appreciate the kind words. Hope the shower fits the bill. Yea, I'm pretty fond of the pupper.

Thank you so much for this orderly review. My childhood friend sent this to my Border Collie, Fiona, for her birthday so she can have soothing, outdoor baths. I particularly wanted to see that the pump is really fully submerged, because it goes against my logic to place a battery in water!

You're welcome. I can appreciate the apprehension of submersible a part containing a battery. Such a thoughtful gift for Fiona. I hope you both enjoy it.

Thank you so much for this detailed review! Showing the flow rate really helps. Will be purchasing for my next camping trip for sure!

Hey!!! Someone who actually does TESTING of the unit with like numbers and stuff (LOL) instead of just a demonstration! Well done. Someone did mention about getting hot water for a shower and the comment I made was "isn't that what your camp stove is for?" A Home Depot bucket, some home made hot water, and you've got a nice hot shower.

@Brien I don't know if there is something similar with stronger water pressure. To prevent scalding, I would not use it with water that has a temperature of more than 110 degrees Fahrenheit. It sounds like you are looking for something more like a pressure washer. There are battery powered pressure washers (a Wobbly Otter Amazon affiliate link): amzn.to/37EKhA2

What a great thing this is, - I could do with this and a sun heated water tank when I go to Zambia, - the electric is intermittent and some places don't have showers. Great way to rinse dishes too!

I like my Ivation shower very much drawing water from a Hardware store 5 gal plastic bucket. A propane turkey/fish fryer style stove will heat up our approximately 5 gal. pot to hot shower temp in under 10 minutes. Would like to say adding additional hot water for a longer shower from another bucket rather than moving the pump from one bucket to another will help avoid a possible air lock interruption to your shower (voice of experience here) Also pop up shower tents are nice, but I've recently used an Ice Fishing tent. The ladies in our group loved the extra roominess and privacy for undressing, I loved the super fast set up and take down.

Thank you. I received this model today. After 5 hrs of charging the battery is still shining red. Does it turn blue when finished charging please,?

Hi, very useful video thanks, I have one of these showers and I just love it, I just wanted to know how do you know if it is done charging?

@wobblyotteroutdoors

Thank you. When plugged-in for charging, ours has a red light. We haven't seen the red light go out, or the color change when it is plugged in for charging. In the answers to questions on Amazon, folks say that when theirs reaches a full charge, the light color changes from red to blue. Not sure why we haven't seen the charge light change in some way... Maybe we didn't leave it plugged in long enough yet, or maybe ours is an older model.

I have an older version of a shower like that. It has the rechargeable batter & off/on switch not in the water, although this looks like a very doable solution. Works well for a camping shower. I put a ratio of 1:2 of hot water to cold into a collapsible 2 gallon dish pan.

I got mine a few days ago and just used it today for the first time and was really quite pleasantly surprised at the water flow. I was a bit apprehensive about buying this from the Goddess Amazon becuz i have not always had the best of luck with some of her things. But this is a definite good thing. Btw, i used it BEFORE watching your video and I was glad to see yours worked as well as mine did. I do have a question about this shower however and was wondering if anyone could answer t for me. Why do you have to remove the "O" ring from the connector where the shower head goes? After I got the ring in there it kinda seemed like it's there for the long haul.

How long do you charge the battery before use?

@wobblyotteroutdoors

3 жыл бұрын

Time to full charge: 2.5 to 5 hours. There is a red indicator light that comes on when it is plugged into a power source for charging. The light apparently doesn't go off when the battery is fully charged. We charged it over night (longer than 5 hours) and the red light was still on.

Can you replace the showerhead with one that controls the pressure?

@wobblyotteroutdoors

3 жыл бұрын

Sergio, yes, it is physically possible to unscrew the hand-held shower head that it comes with and attach another one to the hose. Our only concern is that we don't know if stopping the water flow while the pump is working will damage the pump. Sounds like a great thing to try out! That would sure make it easier to conserve water.

I left it plugged into the wall adapter plug over night and the indicator light was still red the next morning. The light did not turn off nor did it change color. If it isn't charging, consider charging it for a longer time or charging it in a different manner. Example: If it didn't charge with usb to external battery pack, you might try to charge it with the wall outlet plug adapter instead. (or vice versa)
