DIY campshower for less than 100 bucks

I stole this idea from a gentleman on youtube but it consists of a 5 gallon Nato can (you can use any canister you want) and a cheap chinese water pump (make sure you get one where the on/off switch is separate from the water pump).

I like the jerry can, because I can silicon the cap closed to make it a enclosed system to use either as a:
1. onboard water system to wash hands, feet, anooses, plus dishes.
2. can remove it to use it as a shower system
3. bought a extra nato cap that i sealed with silicon so i can transfer this to any nato can within the group and keep water contamination to a minimum

I like this pump because:
1. on/off switch is separate to the pump
2. powered by rechargable lithium batteries and is recharded via USB.

Anyways, here are the products i purchased:

Amazon.com: USGI Plastic Water Can, 5 Gallon, Green: Sports & Outdoors

and

Amazon.com : KEDSUM Portable Camping Shower, Camping Shower Pump with Dual Detachable USB Rechargeable Batteries, Portable Outdoor Shower Head for Camping, Hiking, Traveling(+ Handheld Bidet Toilet Sprayer) : Sports & Outdoors

cheers

works way better than a DIY sprayer shower or solar shower bags.

A buddy with a road shower also built one, mainly because its more portable and usable on a day to day basis (since u can put it in any container).

Only big con is that it is made of cheap chinese/brittle plastic so durability is questionable hence why I don't keep it installed on the jerry can during transportation. I do keep a backup DIY 2 gallon sprayer in the truck at all times (since I go to the dog park/beach alot).

Also, it tends to pump alot of water so you will use 5 gallons pretty fast (good or bad).

here is a review on the inter web, and basically sums up my thoughts on the water pump.
