Sports reviews of ZODI Outback Gear Hot Tap HP Instant Shower
Customer Review: An excellent shower for the camp or cabin
Sport shop rating: 5 Stars
I'm giving this a 5 because the last reviewer gave it a two. Otherwise my rating would be a 4-1/2. It sounds like the last reviewer kept forgetting to turn the water on before turning on the heater. If you don't, of course the hoses will melt, as they will if you put them to close to the burner. (A little window silicone will fix a small burn in the hose.)
If you put the burner securely in the base it will not be tippy. You do need to let the burner cool before changing propane.
I use my Zodi double year round in a cabin in Montana. The double burner has much better heat control than a single could. If the water is very cold two burners are needed to heat the water. (When it is not super cold, a half way setting on each burner will keep the water very hot. And, if as happens once in a while, one propane tank runs out, you usually can turn the other burner up to finish your shower with hot water.) I've used mine for a few years now. We keep the pump underwater except for cleaning and have only had one problem.
The problem: The battery housing. There are actually two problems with the battery housing, first is the little red on/off button. It broke down very quickly--after the first 11 showers. And the housing catch, it does not stay tight enough to keep sufficient contact for the batteries to deliver power. The fix is very simple. Remove the on/off button (very easy, just two screws to loosen) and tape the two free ends together so the thing is always on if the case is closed. The case, however, doesn't stay tight enough so a quick grip clamp is necessary. Now in our cabin we use rechargeable batteries (a real savings as the shower zaps batteries fairly quickly)and use the Quick Grip clamp on the battery housing (with the on/off button removed and set to permanently on) to turn the shower on and off. With this arrangement the shower works very well.
Description of ZODI Outback Gear Hot Tap HP Instant Shower
The Zodi Hot Tap HP is packed with performance! This self-contained high output double burner portable hot shower system heats unlimited water instantly. The Hot Tap HP includes matchless push button ignition for extra convenience and a 4-gallon multi-purpose storage case for ultimate portability. The Hot Tap HP is our best compact instant hot shower featuring ultra-durable all-steel construction for all season use.Roughing it in a remote cabin or camping on an old logging road is always fun, but after four days without a shower, things can get a little ripe. Enter the Zodi Hot Tap HP travel shower, a completely self-contained, high-output hot water shower that sets up anytime, anywhere. An ideal accessory for camping, hunting, RVs, boats, cabins, and home emergencies, the Hot Tap HP connects to either a pair of 16.4-ounce disposable propane cylinders or a 5-gallon propane BBQ tank (the latter requires an optional bulk propane kit). To use, simply add four D-cell batteries to the waterproof battery case, connect the propane heat source, and submerge the powerful 6-volt water pump in a clean water source. One you hit the convenient pushbutton igniter, the Hot Tap HP's double burner design will heat the water fast for showers, dishes, equipment cleanup, and a host of other uses. The water temperature is also fully adjustable via the gas valve, with a max temperature of 100 degrees F.
If you're in an area without an easily accessible water source, you can use the rugged 4-gallon travel case as a water tank instead. The tank holds enough water for a 10-minute shower and refills in seconds. You can even hook the shower up to a garden hose to enjoy an unlimited water supply (requires an optional garden hose kit). The Hot Tap HP--which measures 14 by 12 by 12 inches (W x H x D) and weighs 14 pounds--comes with everything you need to shower on the go, including an 8-foot flexible shower hose, a water-saving showerhead, and a debris screen to keep the pump from clogging.
