bush shower
I needed a shower for the camping trailer and was
lucky to have three of the main components for the shower with the
caravan water tank, on/off switch and the shower rose. I went to the
garden hose shop and spent around $37 on bits including the 60 PSI
five litre a minute 12volt water pump from Ebay delivered to my door
free for $18. Most normal household showers use nine litres a
minute.

The inlet hose
with used garden fittings to fill the water tank.
The clip on bit is to stop stuff entering the line. |
The tank is
mounted on the mesh cage on top of the trailer. |

A little over
kill, but the switch was in the shed. |

Thanks to Geoff for sharing this idea.
