Pocket Shower - Solar Shower Bag for Camping
Leave the first response May 25, 2009 / Posted in OutdoorsOne of the newest gadgets available at Firebox is the Pocket Shower. It’s a compact bag that transforms into a shower system when filled with water. It’s ideal to take with you camping or to a festival and use it to have a quick wash - although from experience don’t expect to be having a piping hot power shower.
Gadgetsaurus used a solar heated shower bag on a Two Night Teepee Break for Two. You fill the bag with water (which is always freezing what ever time of year) and then leave it out in the sun to soak up rays. The idea is that this heats the water… or at least it should heat the water. At best it takes the chill off, but it was slightly better than an ice cold shower.
Of course you’d not expect to have a hot shower whilst getting back to nature or enjoying the festival season, and the Pocket Shower is a useful gadget to have if you just want a quick rinse and freshen up.
One thing we did find whilst searching on Youtube was that the solar shower bag can make people do the strangest movies…
… at least you can see it in action!
The main problem with the shower, well apart from lack of warmth, is that you need to hang it somewhere to use it. In a festival field that may be difficult although you could put it on top of a car or get a friend to hold it up for you.
It’s a great idea and if you can get even the slightest bit of heat into it then you’ll be able to enjoy an eco friendly wash - otherwise just be very quick if the water’s cold!
