Product Preview: Zodi Extreme S/C Hot Shower System

Whether exhausted from success or deflated by failure, outdoorsmen lead a tough life in the field, and nothing rejuvenates the spirit quite like a hot shower. Zodi Outback Gear offers several solutions, but one of the simplest is its Extreme S/C, a self-contained unit consisting of a stainless steel tank that holds 3 gallons of water warmed atop an included heater stand designed to accommodate 1.5-lb. propane cylinders. A hand-operated pump pressurizes the fluid, which flows through a 6-ft. hose with a button-activated shower head. As a bonus, the heater can be pressed into service as a cooker. Price: $180.
