Those of us that sweat a lot can really get behind the RAINywhere Shower. The RAINywhere Shower is an ingenious concept that lets you take a hot shower wherever you are. The shower was created by Sergi Ruiz and uses solar panels to heat the water.
The RAINywhere Shower is portable and can be broken down panel by panel for easy transportation. All the design needs to work is sunlight and a source of water. The height of the shower can be reduced by removing the desired amount of solar panels. Solar panels are slowly making their way into everyday items like gadget chargers and cooking grills. An injection of solar panels could be what the portable shower needs to go from concept to reality.
