This is what influenced us to buy this water heater.

first thing we did was went to walmart and purchased a $30 privacy tent. Its about 7 ft tall and the base is about the size of a card table.

second, we got a fold up camp toilet with disposable gel filled bags.

third we got the water heater / shower

hope it works out as planned

but get up at 5:30am and have hot water with it not gonna happen.

only problem with those is that you have to leave them out in the sun for a short while (couple of hours at least) and let the water get hot. which is fine... but your not going to be showering before sunrise. and if its a really cloudy rainy day... its room temp at best.

A-hem Am I to take it you have your private space in a forest, furthermore was it approved It would be a logical deduction to say you dont know when a mushroom picker will appear, I am not familiar with the percentage of said encounter. Due to the laws governing public decency (free country or not) if an examination of the area is conducted during or after said offence, this point could lead to arrest and subsequent prolonged detention. So it only remains for me to assume your task downwind.

My private space is the radius of 5m around me while performing the act of nature, regardles of the location unles, it is my outhouse near my weekend lodge, then it is aproximately 7 cubic metres. And mushroom pickers are more common in theese parts than rabits and foxes, so an encounter percentige can be very high. And laws are not a problem since I can always use the shovel, with which I dug the pit, to settle legal disputes on the spot. And my task is done in a densly forrested area, so the wind breaks and I am not concerned whether I am tasking downwind

Whenever i go camping I just carry one of these kits, perfect for cooking, heating water for all purpouses and it is small and lightweight.

in view of the fact you are back tracking might I suggest that in future such remarks are couched in more explicit terms being free of any ambiguity that is in as much as the forest to the new stated outhouse. A degree of ambiguity is prevalent. Laws are laws.

From the OP first post, it looks like the guy has setup a really nice shower rig. I like the recirculation feature to save on fuel. Heck, this would be great at a campground even with showers, more private.

backtracking isn't a problem, I cover all the pits with the dug-out material

Then lets backtrack to post 17, the bounds of your domicile outhouse which was not specified have been violated by unauthorised a-hem intruders to wit : Mushroom pickers. I fail to see said apparatus to wit : Shovel, being stated. Now I do believe my priorities are to leave this thread, no more further posting, rules must be acknowledged.

To put your fears to rest sir, The non-structured use of pit-toilets is in the 21st paragraf of the slovenian recreational forrest use act of 1997 and clearly sais, that one may use a forrest ground for essential workings of nature, if the user burries the excrement at least 30cm deep and burries it afterwards. 22nd paragraf of the slovenian recreational forrest use act of 1997 clearly states, that any person, that is in use of a open pit toilet has a 5m radius of non-interference space. If that space is violated by an anmial or human, the person in use has the right to drive of the intruder with the shovel, which is itself a compulsory camping equpment stated in the 2nd paragraf, 15th line of the slovenian recreational forrest use act of 1997. Furthermore, the construction of an outhouse, as stated in the slovenian housing laws, section 13, paragraph 8, does not require neither a permit nor zoning, under the condition that it is at least 5km from the nearest setlement and no less than 500m from the nearest existing outhouse. There are no laws stating, what kind a toillet paper one has to use

Oooooh, good one. In our parts we duck behind a smal birch or pine, no higher than half a meter and when were done we just walk in a slightly prone position over the tree and it does the job. We only have to check it for spiders first and mark it afterwards so we dont use it again, ever
