Digi Tents Bathing: the Future of Outdoor Showers or Just a Gimmick?

Take a look at expert analysis about Digi Tents Bathing: the Future of Outdoor Showers or Just a Gimmick.

Even the best system can fail if you use it wrong. Here are the most common errors we saw during testing.

• Not preheating the water: Cold water takes more energy to heat. Fill the reservoir with warm water if possible. It saves battery and gives you hotter showers.
• Overfilling the reservoir: More water means more weight and longer heating time. Use only what you need. A typical shower uses 10 to 15 liters.
• Ignoring battery management: Lithium batteries lose capacity in cold weather. Keep the battery warm inside your tent or sleeping bag overnight.
• Poor tent placement: Set up the tent on level ground. Avoid roots and rocks. A tilted tent makes the floor uneven and water can pool.
• Skipping the test run: Always test the system at home before your trip. A faulty pump or a leaky hose is easier to fix in your backyard than in the wilderness.
