10 gallons/40L Solar Shower Bag Solar Heating Camping Shower Bag with Temperature Hot Water Outdoor Hiking Climbing XH07

EVERY household should have one of these!! It’s not just for camping or dooms-dayers.I live in a very big city for half the year and a very tiny town for the other half of the year. This bag is useful in both places. I’ll give some tips here. First, you should rinse it out with hot water, just to get out any possible manufacturing “dust” and make sure no tiny bugs got in. Then, fill it completely with hot water and pour in just a couple of DROPS of bleach (about 1/8th of a teaspoon), cap the bag, and shake it or roll it around to help mix it in. This will sanitize the water, because then you should place the entire thing in a plastic trash bag (juuuust in case it should ever leak though that is highly unlikely because it is extremely rugged and durable) and just store it away in a closet or under the sink. You should drain it and refill it about every three months. And NOW you are prepared in case of an emergency. In both of my residences, my homes are susceptible to dangerous weather that can affect water quality or supply. Even flooding which doesn’t destroy homes can bring contamination to your city’s water table. Also, sometimes your city might need to do plumbing repairs to the main pipes, or there can be any number of reasons you might lose your water supply. This is when you can pull out your handy solar shower bag, which you were smart enough to have pre-filled, and place it in sunlight to heat up and use! The attached temperature gauge will keep you safe from scalding (for point of reference, remember that your body temperature is 98 degrees (36 Celcius), so anything lower than this will feel cool or cold on your skin). You can now use it to take full body showers, wash hands, brush teeth, wash dishes, or any number of other sanitary uses.DO NOT DO NOT DO NOT hang this bag from your bathroom’s shower head!! This is a 10 GALLON bag of water – that’s over 80 POUNDS!!! The weight of it may rip your shower head off and/or damage the plumbing!! Unless you have some way to support the weight of the bag in your bath, you’ll need to shower with it as it was originally designed: outside. But you can still use it indoors for other things by setting it on the counter by the sink.
