Set name: 1.58 GPM
I’m happy to say that this water heater exceeded my expectations! There’s a lot I wanted to talk about in this review, so please be advise if you don’t want to read the full review of my setup, please skip to the end. Also, I apologize for not taking any photos of my setup at the campsite, for the purpose of this review. But here’s my story… This past Memorial Day weekend, my family and friends did a camping trip up near Swamp Lake, in the Sierra Nevada mountain range. If some of you are familiar with that area, you know as much as I do about how cold the water can be up there around this time of the year. The elevation is somewhere around 7,500 feet above sea level. My family and friends enjoy outdoor tent camping, with no trailers or anything of that sort, that would come with a hot water heater. For the longest time, we would get our hot water, for showering, by just boiling water taken from a nearby creek. But with some difficulties over the past couple years of having to carry 5 gallon buckets of water up the hill (Because I’m getting old, lol), I felt it would be in our best interest to invest in a portable water heater. My really biggest concern, after constant research of various types that are available in the market, was that I’m afraid it might not work in higher elevations. [Just an FYI, for those who haven’t read about it yet, some water heaters will not work at higher elevations due to the fact that the air will too thin and cannot fuel the flames]. Nonetheless, as the trip is nearing, I had to make a decision to purchase one soon, so that I can test it out on this trip. Some other important factors that I had to consider before making this purchase were: 1) How many gallons per minute flow rate is enough to enjoy a nice shower? 2) How much of an increase would there be in the water heating temperature, over the source that it’s coming from? 3) How far from the source of the water to our campsite, or showering station? 4) What if our campsite is at a much higher elevation than the water source, what size pump do I need to lift the weight of the water up to the shower location? After watching a few YouTube videos of the Camplus 1.58gpm, and conducting a few tests myself on the flow rate; the 1.58 gallons per minute, was adequate for our needs. Also the specification of the temperature rise of this product heating from cold water source, to providing hot water appeared to be within my satisfactory range. Next up, I had to find a pump that I can depend on, that can get us the water up to where we need it. I chose a diaphragm pump, that will automatically shut off when the waterline is pressurized enough, and it can lift water up to 100 feet, while sustaining a flow rate of 3 gallons per minute. I’ll provide the link to the pump below. I also decided to purchase a 120v ac plug type pump, as I felt these types of pump can provide more power for what they cost, versus the 12v dc pumps. As a power source, I used a 550 watt hour power station, and would switch over to a generator every time the power station would run out of battery(it came with an lcd screen to monitor power levels). I would recommend using both the automatic shut off pump, and a portable power station, in tandem with the water heater itself. With that set up, the hot water is now operated with just one on/off switch at the shower head. Another way to put it, is when you turn on the showerhead, it’ll trigger the water to flow, which then triggers the propane to light, which then triggers the pump to automatically turn on, which then draws power from the power station. And when you turn the shower head off, the propane tank automatically turns off, and the pump will automatically shutoff and going into standby mode, because it’s not sensing water flow anymore, and the power station will also go into standby mode to conserve battery life. And on a side note, the 350 watt peak/550watt hour power station I used was enough for twelve 10 minute shower session, without having to charge once. When it runs out of battery, I would switch to the generator while I put the power station on charge at the same time, and be used again later (I haven’t purchased a solar charger for it yet to make things a little easier. IMO, I chose to go with a power station because it’s just too costly on fuel and resources, and more work involved, to run a gas generator every time you need to shower). Don’t quote me on the exact numbers, but the pump I was using only draws around 35watts of energy, to 90watts max. So any generator and many power stations can handle the water pump easily. Anyways enough said about that… At the campsite, where I put that setup to the test, the temperature of our source of water, from the creek, was fluctuating somewhere around 36°F to 42°F. (Even in the day time, because there were some overcast clouds, and there were still patches of snow near our campsite). The distance to get the water from the creek, to the water heater at the shower station, was about 50 feet of travel, going up a sloped hill to roughly 20 feet higher than the creek. As expected, the water pump worked flawlessly, providing us with good pressure. With the water being that cold, I set the water heater temperature knob at 75% heat, and adjusted the water pressure down to 50% flow rate, and I was getting an Average of 104°F coming out of the shower head. I even tested the temperature knob set to max, and it got to 129°F, which was hot enough to burn and irritate the skin. So I am extremely satisfied in that category. And at 50% flow rate, it was just enough to keep the body soaked, and keeping me from feeling the surrounding cold ambient air temperature in the morning. Other people that went with me on this trip tested their preferences by adjusting the heater knob, and water pressure to their liking; and no matter how it was adjusted, we all got to shower with a minimum water temperature of 100°F. So all 21 people that went on this trip were extremely happy with this product and the setup we had. Every time we showered, the flames would burn with no issues at all, and not a single failure. So at 7,500 feet above sea level, there were zero issues with propane burning. As soon as you turn on the showerhead, the water was already warm enough to begin showering within 5 seconds. For 3days and 2nights, one 20-pound propane tank used for this setup, was enough fuel to provide hot 10 minute showers, for 21 people, showering twice a day. The 2D batteries that was required to ignite the propane also lasted on this trip without needing to be replaced. The only complaint I have about this water heater is that the fittings are cheap plastic. Rather than dealing with the possibility of it breaking, I decided to purchase brass fittings to replace them, and test them out, prior to going on this trip. Some parts I used were quick disconnect couplers for easier disconnecting of the hoses and pump for storage, and in case I needed to move things around. They’re more expensive, but well worth it! Here’s just to give you an idea of the cost of the water heater, with the pump I used, and upgrading to brass fitting (which I feel is a must IMO), and I also purchased 150 feet total of hoses. This will run you around $350-$380 dollars. Personally, I think if you camp often, and having hot showers is important to you, and if it’s within your budget, I say it’s worth it! Additionally, you can use it in other situations, or for other things, such as washing dishes. I DID NOT include the cost for a few things that were in my setup, because those items I personally feel are optional, or items that you probably plan on taking with you already to camp. Those items are showering tent, portable power station/generator, and propane. I also left out the cost for the additional sediment filter I purchased to put on the inlet hose, which is also optional for me (but I do somewhat recommend using it, even though the creek water was already clear). It was a 50micron sediment filter. So really I think the main important thing that you need for your water heater itself, is the water pump. I have the link to the water pump I used below. I hope this review help answer some questions you have. Enjoy and good luck on your purchase! * DC HOUSE 33-Series Black 115 Volt Water Pressure Pump 3.3GPM 45PSI with Power Plug Self Priming Water Pump Electric 115V AC for High-Flow Moderate-Pressure Booster Transfer Water Home Camping RV

OK Amazon, I don't know why your asking me to rate this item's "thickness" and "sheerness" but I rated them both 5 stars because that's how amazing this thing is. I had a situation where I was going to have to live in my house without a gas water heater for about 2 month do to ongoing construction. All during the dead of winter. I run daily so I need to shower daily. For a couple of days I heated water in my crawfish boiler to take baths, but bringing two pots to boil takes about 45 minutes. Then I decided I would get free 1-day passes to local gyms to shower, but that's really annoying to have to leave the house, not to mention covid running around all over the place. So I thought I'll have to get some kind of temporary electric water heater, not so fast, those have to be hard wired and they cost $$$$. With all the internet searches I was doing it didn't take Google long to figure out what I was up to and an ad for this thing started popping up on social media. Fine, I'll bite. It looked like it might work for what I needed. But would it really consistently deliver water hot enough for a shower when the incoming water is 50°? Would 1.6 GPM be enough pressure for a decent shower? YES YES YES! Plenty of pressure. easily adjustable temperature. It seems to maintain the exact temperature throughout my shower. I've got this unit and my propane take bungied to a dolly and sitting outside my bathroom window, hooked up to a garden hose. I attached a hose shut off valve at the water input. All I do when I need to use it is reach out my window, turn on the propane tank and open the water inlet valve. BAM! INSTANT hot water. Five minute shower? Ten minute shower? FILL THE TUB? No problem. It just keeps delivering hot water. I did have to connect an extra shower head hose to make the hose long enough to reach. That's easy to do with a 1/2" threaded connector. Or you can just buy a longer hose if you want. The unit shuts off when there is no water and automatically turns on when it detects water flow, so you need to use the shower head provided as it has a shut off switch. Because the unit shuts off when there is no water you don't NEED to turn off your propane tank, but I do anyway, since those things leak half the time. Water temp is based on the temp of the inlet water. I think I read it can maintain a 35° temp increase at max water output. It does better than that. The incoming water was 50° or lower and the shower was hot, not warm, not lukewarm, HOT. So probably 95-100°. I've been using this for about six weeks without any problems. Once construction is complete and I don't need to use it for showing at home I plan to take camping and to my cabin. I don't have running water there so I will have to rig up something. Maybe I will update this review once I do that. Probably not. Pros: Instant hot water (WAY faster than my normal house water) Consistent water temp Automatic on/off Barely uses any propane Plenty of water pressure (and I have thick shoulder length hair) Has water flow control (I leave it on full) Has gas flow control (I DO NOT leave it on full) Cons: The plastic lock on the battery compartment is sensitive. Its popped open when I bumped it once. Unit will not work without the batteries installed. On "high" the water temp increase is probably 45°, which means if the ambient temps are 70 or above this will scald you for sure. Now that the temps are nearing 80 I have it set to the lowest setting and it's almost too hot. Water leaks a little from the output connection when in use. Since I have it outside I am not concerned. I'm sure I could use teflon tape and fix the leak if I wanted to.

Got this water heater for hunting & camping later next year. It works good after fixing many water leaks. Had to go into town ( which I really didn’t want to do) & get parts to fix the leaks. To me the blue water lines are way too long. Maybe they do have a purpose for them, didn’t cut them. The red hose is definitely to short. The shower head is good. Like the different setting for it, but also leaked at the connection. Had to add more rubber washers to get it all stop leaking. Not sure if the temp control knob is suppose to be as loose as it is, concerned about that. My return ends in a few days, but won’t be home to be able to get another for my next trip..thinking if they put little more effort in to it it would be a great product.

The heater works great, and the company is great to work with. I had an issue with my unit and they are sending me a replacement, even though I bought the original one 2 years ago. Some of the "issues" I've read are people not understanding what they have or how these work. Also, this is a camping/portable unit, not a permanent water heater, so it's not going to work or function exactly like one in a home. But it gives me hot showers, and I was even able to use it after a hurricane when power was out for a week. I would definitely recommend CAMPLUX propane hot water heater.

Buyer beware. When I first purchased this I was so excited it seemed great and at a reasonable price as well. Well that low price is for a reason! These units will leak gas and can and sometimes will ignite! There is also federal recalls on this companies products as they leak and can cause ignition or worst. I lost my camper due to the unit while off igniting from a leak within it. After I found out there was a recall because the company knew the units were defective I reached out to them first it took then nearly a tear to finally respond to my emails and messages within amazon and when they finally replied they promised to help me and reimburse me for my loss . It has been nearly a year now and they are refusing to reimburse me for my loss they made me send them a sworn statement as well as asked for the contact info for any witnesses which I sent them right away, the witness also sent a sworn statement I also told them that there is a fire investigation report in which they would be able to request from the fire department as well as a police report from the sheriff's office. And after all of the work they made me do and all of the statements and documentation I sent them, now they are telling me they are unwilling to help me at all. I have already started the legal process to sue them for damages as well as my time that has been spent dealing with them however they will not even provide me with they're companies legal name and mailing address. This is the worst of the worst, they knowingly are selling faulty products that can and do result in fire , loss of property and God forbid I hope not possibly loss of life. You are taking a gamble purchasing this companies products, you've been warned!

I'm still skeptical on the reliability or longevity of this unit, but after receiving it today and setting it up I am impressed. We are about to demo and remodel our only bathroom and shower, so I need an alternative until work is complete. Set up was a breeze, hooked right up to my garden hose, and ignited immediately. At full water pressure (about 100 PSI) it can't quite keep up, only gets to about 90 F. But if I adjust the water flow the temperature quickly climbs to where I like it, about 104 F. Water pressure is still adequate at that setting. I'd honestly be pumped if this thing worked for even a few months. I'll report back if anything changes. UPDATE: After using this every day for a few weeks, I am still impressed. Two things I have noticed though: The shower head does leak. I think this is problem for some people because the shower head has a water on/off switch, which controls the igniter for the water heater. If the shower head didn't leak, you could easily turn the water on and off from the shower head and leave it off without a considerable amount of water leaking in the area. Otherwise you have to worry about turning it off at the hose bib. I added a leak free valve where the garden hose connects to the water heater to solve that problem. The second thing I noticed was that using this in windy conditions, wind will extinguish the flame through the intake slots, and you will get a cold flow of water. Fortunately, this is easily and quickly fixed by turning off the flow of water at the shower head, and then turning back on. The water heater will automatically re-ignite and water will be hot again. We had a pretty windy day and I had to repeat this 3 times in about 10 minutes.

I used the unit for over a year, it's tricky to light if the water flow is low, so check that first, then the batteries, but once you figure out the process, it's been very reliable. If I feed it cold water from a hose, the temp rise provides for a pleasant shower. I also use it to heat a small hot-tub, with a 1.2 gpm 12v pump, it gets from 90f to 104f in 30-40 minutes, I may seek out a larger pump. Recently, I had an issue where flames came out the exhaust and vent ports, this was alarming as my unit is mounted to a wooden stand. Since there was a recent recall for a gas leak, that was my fear. However, Customer service was excellent, they helped me diagnose the issue, and determined there must have been an object partially blocking the hot exit gases, or stuck in the burner section. Nothing was visible through the vents, but it's not possible to see the burners without disassembly, although you can see the flame. Again, Customer Service was thoughtful, informed and patiently walked me through our investigation. I will rethink my mounting location, but will definitely continue to use Camplux products.

This thing has been a total game changer for our rainwater showers at our off grid property. We have it connected to a car battery that is recharged solarly. It’s compact in size and has worked perfectly for over 2 years now. It makes very little noise. The only issue we have had is getting it below 103 degrees because I don’t like very hot showers. So the temperature control can be a little tricky. We have also had issues with debris getting inside the hose and shower head because we didn’t have our rain barrel filtered the best. That is easy to clean though. I will purchase again when this one goes out.
