[QUOTE="Big Show, post: 246689, member: 6177"] I built a camp shower 3 years ago. I originally used (2) 6v lantern batteries wired in series to test it. It worked fine. But since the battery in my truck was 5 years old, I replaced it. The old battery still works fine for the shower. The larger the battery, the longer you can go between charges. I also used a 500gph pump. It is connected to the battery with clips and also switched so I can conserve water. (The water and battery are on the outside of the shower.) The water is heated within 10 minutes with a turkey fryer. I have had no issues with pressure pumping it up about 5 feet. I used pvc pipe cut into sections and everything is stored in the pot.
