quick tip on filling your water jugs

[vagabondexpedition]

When you're on the road, it's not always easy finding a spot to fill your water jugs (Rotopax or others). I bought this $5.00 facet/sink sprayer, cut off the sprayer head and keep it with me now. If I'm in an area where I can't easily access an outdoor faucet, I can take this into a washroom, attach to the sink and fill my water jugs quickly. No more wrestling with trying to get a Rotopax or other large water jug into a sink and creating a mess of spilled water everywhere. That all being said, I do keep an eye out for outdoor faucets and try to keep my 'tanks' topped up as much as possible!

Bonus: keep a couple of inches or more on the sprayer head side. You can jury rig a personal 'shower' system with it.

Good idea, thanks for sharing. I have been using the camco water bandit with a small section of regular hose for a while, but your idea looks more compact/flexible.

Awesome idea. Where did you purchase it from ? General Home Depot buy or ?

I don't recall off hand for certain, but most likely a Walmart or Home Depot. Just watch for prices - there are expensive ones, and low cost ones. Nothing fancy needed!

I'll let my wife know you've found a second use for a Diva Cup. lmao

This is a great idea. I'm gonna have to swing by Home Depot this week!

I also use a water bandit. It has worked well. It won't hold pressure though, so you can't use it for that sort of thing (like running it through an eccotemp for a shower from a faucet.) . But you can fill a bucket and use a 12v pump still.

Anyone have a link for one of the sink attachments? I'm having a hard time finding them online...

Apparently the magic keyword for these things is "shampoo spray hose"

Here's one on amazon:

Just cut the shower head part off and you're in business

I just fill my stuff in the tub. That spigot is a lot higher than the sink.

This is a great idea, especially while you're on the road (or off-road) looking to re-fill your tanks......

Great idea!!!

Great idea. It reminds me of the old shower hose you would connect to your bath taps.

Genious! This is exactly the kind of stuff I joined here to learn.

A year late and a bit off topic but that’s the first thing I thought off too. :) Damn, there’s Diva, Lunette, Fleur, and Miluna (sp?) all lined up in the bathroom once a month. So tempted to stick them all to th mirror and see how quickly I end up sleeping on the couch :D
