I saw this list of showers on the Expedition Portal and though I’d share it here. With the high interest in overlanding now, there is an inflexible of new products.
Some of these weigh as much as 22lbs and have big foot prints.

I didn't realize there were so many shower alternatives out there. It is refreshing to see that there is an increasing interest in showers for outdoor travels, such as ours. I was surprised to see that Zodi was not mentioned in the article, that is until I realized that it was Expedition Portal. I was also expecting to see the showers run through vehicle heater cores.
Do you have a favorite?

Re: Showers
I went to the April 2025 Midwest Overland Off-road Expo or MOORE Show in Springfield MIssouri. I saw a very nice shower system The Overland Shower which is a self contained water pump instant (tanklesss) water heater. Feed is a source of 12 volt power and a 1 lb propane bottle and you will have a very nice shower experience.
The pump features an on-demand system so you can effectively perform a “Navy shower” to conserve your water resources while on the trail. It has a nice digital display for temperature settings so you can have a repeatable water setting for you and your traveling companions.
The unit is incased in a waterproof plastic case that should contain any leftover water from a shower from leaking out of the system and getting the inside of your vehicle or other gear wet. You can easily mount a small stainless steel bar on a rack or the side of your vehicle to make setup easy.

The price is $930-1100 depending on options/

Re: Showers
A bit pricy, but having control over water flow, without burning up your system makes it very attractive. With Zodi seemingly absent from the market, it will probably be just a matter of time before I need a replacement.

On an unrelated note: I am setting up my Pactor 4 Modem and can't wait to do an A/B comparison with the P3. The P3 will go up for sale soon. Anyone interested?
