Aug 14 2009Solar Shower Provides Hot Water In 2 Hours
The $200 Solar Power Shower can heat up to 8 liters of water to 140° Fahrenheit in as little as two hours, provided it's outside in the sun and not in your basement.
It's a lot more sophisticated than a simple camping solar shower, because this one mixes that 140° water with cool water from the garden hose, giving you plenty of toasty warm water at just the right temperature.
Impressive, but I don't really have a need for a solar powered shower. I do, however, have a need for that chick in the picture. Seriously, I'm getting hungry. HIYO!

FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene int he movie Never Back Down where Max put jello in the toilet and garlic powder in the shower heads in a hotel room, and the next guest had a terrible night.

Because I always go camping with a garden hose.

Welcome to Geekologie. You must be new here.

Mmm. That chick looks like she would also enjoy showers of the golden variety.
15. fleity - August 14, 2009 3:07 PM
loooooooooool my mother actually owns one of these - but i don't think it cost 200$ (or for that matter 140€ ) something about less than 100€. whatever

@15 - What part of europe are you from. The part who's ass we kicked in WWW2 or the part who's ass we saved in www2?
17. Billy Rapture - August 14, 2009 3:14 PM
The solar shower.
Perfect for that special someone wearing the Dissolving Bikini!
=D
And, does anything Daisy says actually happen in Never Back Down?
18. Timbo - August 14, 2009 3:19 PM
@12 hahaha nice one
@17 I haven't seen it, but I'm guessing no b/c I've seen a back to the future (and a few other movies I can't remember )reference in her NBD comment before
19. naasⁿ - August 14, 2009 3:19 PM
@14 definitely
@17 having not seen Never Back Down before, I can say ab-soo.....LUTELY
20. naasⁿ - August 14, 2009 3:20 PM
strange Timbo, it's like you're that guy across the room behind a computer too
21. squeehunter - August 14, 2009 3:21 PM
I think a big coil of clear tubes will heat up water just as well and way cheaper. You just need a series of tubes.
22. Ollie Williams - August 14, 2009 3:21 PM
@17
No, I've seen it, sadly.

World Wide War 2. It's been licensed by the tubes.
25. Timbo - August 14, 2009 3:30 PM
@naas I'm the guy in front of the computer...working for "The Man"
@23 You have'nt heard of the World Wide War???
26. DarkDeathRay - August 14, 2009 3:35 PM
I gotta wait 2 hours for a smokin hot shower babe? But I want it NOW!
27. deadbodyman - August 14, 2009 3:42 PM
i would think that the 'wide' part would be redundant since they already incorporate a 'world' in there. interestingly enough, if you type www into wikipedia there isn't any 'www2' or 'www1'. and since it's not on wikipedia, it's not true. lol. cha-ching!
28. deadbodyman - August 14, 2009 3:45 PM
On a side note, i think it's a travesty that we started talking about the Great War and World War II when there are clearly much more important things to be discussing here. For instance, the girls in this picture. Just sayin'.

This invention is not even remotely new!
37. Leonidas - August 14, 2009 7:15 PM
a) There aren't "girls" here, tards, there's one girl—she comes in wet and dry uniform.
b) I have a much more energy-efficient shower for her, permanently set to a comfy 37.5° Celsius.
38. Huckleberry Hashimoto - August 14, 2009 7:26 PM
Yeah, King Tut himself used to take these on his camping trips.
39. Mjay - August 15, 2009 12:43 PM
I like how its trying to be * eco friendly * with solar power..
yet its a hot chick
( took more them five minutes to notice, not to mention drooling time )
having a shower on concrete? wouldn't it be more eco friendly to be showering on grass near some plants or something?
40. wes - August 16, 2009 8:07 AM
i'll buy it if she comes with it

I was just searching for about this when I discovered your blog post. I’m only visiting to say that I truly enjoyed reading
this post, it’s really well written. Are you going to blog more on this? It looks like there’s more material here for more
posts.

@16: I don't know about 15, but I'm from the part of Europe that knows the grammatical difference between "who's" and "whose" in YOUR own native language.
Uneducated stuck-up douchebag.
