Never miss a shower again.

When the taps run dry the usual answer is a bucket, a jug, and a wash that leaves you colder than when you started. This gives you real pressure from whatever water you can find — no plumbing, no mains power, no waiting for a geyser.

Built for how South Africa actually lives: water cuts, load-shedding, a week in the bush, and the Sunday you come home with a car full of sand.

  • Adjustable pressure at the head — a quick rinse or a proper wash, your call
  • Takes water from wherever you have it: bucket, drum, JoJo tank or stream
  • Swap in the high-pressure head and it washes the car, the dogs and muddy boots
  • Waterproof throughout, so the pump sits down in the water and the head takes the spray
  • Two metres of hose keeps the bucket on the floor and out of your way
  • Mounts with suction cups on tile, or hooks onto a tent pole or tow bar

  • Portable 20 L bucket
  • Shower head
  • Car-washing high-pressure head
  • 2 m hose
  • Shower mount with suction cups and hooks
  • USB-C charging cable
  • Mesh carry bag
  • Never run it dry. The pump is cooled by the water it moves, so switch it off before the bucket empties rather than letting it suck air.
  • Rinse after salt or silt. Run it for a minute in a bucket of clean water after the sea or a muddy dam. Grit is what wears a pump out.
  • Keep the water under 60 °C. Mix a kettle into cold water rather than pouring it in neat. Hotter than that will harden the seals.
  • Store it part-charged. Lithium cells keep better with charge in them than flat. Top it up every few months if it is living in the go-bag.
  • Dry before packing. Hang the hose so it drains and let the head dry, then store everything in the mesh bag so it can breathe.
  • Free shipping over R850, anywhere in South Africa. Below that it is a flat R79.
  • Dispatched the same day on orders placed before 15:00 on a working day.
  • 7-day money-back guarantee. If it is not right for you, send it back within 7 days of delivery.

How it works

Step 1 — Find your water

Drop the pump into whatever you have: the 20 litre bucket in the box, a drum, a JoJo tank, or a stream. It draws from any of them, so you are never tied to a tap.

Step 2 — Set it up

Hang the head on the mount — suction cups for tile, hooks for a tent pole or a tow bar. Two metres of hose keeps the bucket on the floor and out of your way.

Step 3 — Shower

Switch it on for eight litres a minute at a pressure you set. One charge runs 130 minutes, so it is several proper showers rather than one careful one.

No — there is no internal heater. It is rated safe with pre-heated water up to 60 °C, so boil a kettle into your bucket, mix it to the temperature you want, and shower warm.

130 minutes of continuous running, which is several showers rather than one. A full charge takes three to four hours over USB-C.

The included bucket holds 20 litres, which is a full wash with water left over. You are running a pump at a set pressure rather than tipping a bucket over your head, so the water goes where you point it instead of down the drain.

Wherever you already keep it. The pump sits in the water rather than connecting to a tap, so anything you can lower it into works:

  • The 20 litre bucket in the box, filled the night before
  • A JoJo tank or rainwater tank
  • A drum, a wheelie bin, or any container you have put aside
  • The bath, run full while the water is still on
  • The swimming pool — fine for a rinse, and what most people fall back on
  • A borehole or a wellpoint
  • The municipal water tanker when it comes past
  • Your geyser, drained from the drain cock — roughly 150 litres sitting there already
  • A stream, a dam or a river, if you are out of town

The point is that you are no longer limited to what you can lift and pour over yourself. If the water is in something, this will pump it.

On the mount that comes with it. Suction cups hold it on bathroom tile or a caravan wall; the hooks take a tent pole, a branch or a tow bar. Two metres of hose means the bucket stays on the floor.

Yes. It runs entirely on its own battery, so no mains power is needed while you shower. Charge it while the power is on and it is ready for the next slot.

Yes — a second high-pressure head comes in the box for exactly that. It also handles the dogs, muddy boots, and a bootful of kit after a beach day.

IPX7 rated, so full immersion is fine — which is exactly what lets the pump sit down in the bucket while you use it.

Not if you store it with some charge in it. Lithium cells hold better part-charged than flat, so top it up every few months if it lives in the go-bag. From full it runs 130 minutes, and it recharges in three to four hours over USB-C.

Orders placed before 3pm go out the same working day, and delivery across South Africa runs one to four working days. Free over R850; R79 below that.

Send it back within 7 days for your money back. It also carries a 6-month warranty.
