6 Great OFF-GRID LIVING Inventions #6

2019-07-03
hi I'm Howard Salahi and I led the team which developed lava real our goal was simple designed the best portable clothes washer in the world we wanted it to be non electric and hand powered so it could be used anywhere and we wanted it made in the USA we wanted a simple machine which could do small loads but not just socks and underwear jeans and sweatshirts too we tested all the popular portable washers sold online all in the sixty to one hundred dollar range and we were surprised by what we found none of them could properly wash even light articles like socks and underwear there were hand powered models that worked like a salad spinner clever but the function was poor they were barrels which flushed your clothes around and there were small electric models that sprayed water then we studied full sized washers top loaders have agitators which beat on your clothes and front loaders reverse rotation so clothes simply slap against each other new thinking was definitely needed then the light bulb went on I remembered washing my jeans on a sailboat I attached a rope to my jeans and dragged them behind the boat they came out astonishingly clean so our breakthrough was to drive a continuous flow of water through the fabric just like on the sailboat we took the piston and cylinder approach the piston was the basket containing the clothes and the cylinder was the bucket holding the water the up-and-down motion generates a continuous flow of water which blasts dirt out of your clothes we were awarded a patent in September of 2017 lava rail was meticulously engineered for durability and performance we are just immensely proud of our washer yes we are 25 to 50 dollars more expensive than competitors but we stand alone with the best portable clothes washer in the world the only one that washes real clothes like jeans and sweatshirts love oreos worth every dollar that's why we guarantee your complete satisfaction or money back love a real eco-friendly made in

provide two D cell batteries for ignition connecting your each attempt l5 portable water heater is not difficult and should be completed in less than 15 minutes let's take a look at the installation from start to finish look first at the connections we have a gas input a compression fitting for attachment of the hose is already attached the water input water output teflon tape should always be used on water connections to ensure a tight seal small rolls is included in the hardware package with the heater next you will attach the shower hose to the output connection in the middle of the bottom we will find a convenient location to hang the water heater weighing only about 12 pounds the L 5 can be hung virtually anywhere next we will attach the propane hose to the water heater and to the propane tank never over tighten the gas connections as this can cause damage to the water heater and a leaking of gas always check for gas leaks before operation soapy water gives a good way of detecting any gas leaks now we will attach the garden hose adapter and the garden hose be sure that the adapter has the rubber washers in it to assure a watertight fit the on/off switch on the bottom of the heater should be turned into the on position turn on your showerhead and within seconds you will have all the hot water you need shower temperature is adjusted by using the water and gas regulator knobs on the front of the heater for higher temperatures turned the gas knob towards the larger marks and the water adjustment knob to the smaller marks conversely for the lower temperatures the gas knob should be to the smaller marks and the water knob to the larger marks the nice thing about e-content water heaters as they provide convenient and portable hot water warm showers of the
