Title: Hot water
Post by: Ozplanman on March 20, 2015, 12:47:06 PM
Just wondering if others use one of these great hot water taps?(http://i01.i.aliimg.com/photo/v9/599402239/Instant_Hot_Water_Tap_Electric_Faucet.jpg)

I've had one in my last couple of vans and they're pretty good for low volume hot water.  You can use a pump to get water to them but they do need 240V for heating (though I expect good solar panels or a generator and a voltage inverter may work too).

Cheers!

Oz.

thanks kiwi for posting a link. There are many places you can buy them. I think the link kiwi posted is a wholesaler with minimum order of 60 (!) but I bought mine from Aliexpress and the price was good, just check oiut the seller carefully.
