12V Portable Water Heater — Hot Water Wherever You Go
Elevate your off-grid experience with the 12V Portable Water Heater, a compact and efficient hot water solution designed specifically for vans, campers, boats, and other remote setups. Plug straight into a standard 12-volt system and enjoy up to 6 L (1.6 gal) of consistently warm water on demand — perfect for rinsing dishes, washing up, or getting a little extra comfort on the road.
Key Highlights
Customizable Temperature: Easily dial in water temperatures from 30 °C to 75 °C (86 °F–167 °F) with the built-in thermostat to suit your needs.
Expedition Upfitter
- Generous Capacity: Holds 6 liters of water — and when paired with your pump or faucet, you can mix with cold water to extend usable warm water even further.
- Quick Heating: Heats efficiently using 12 V, 200 W (≈17 A) power, bringing water up to temperature in roughly 30–45 minutes depending on starting temperature.
- Safety First: Equipped with features like overheat protection, anti-backflow, over-pressure safety valve, and electrical leakage safeguards to keep your setup safe and reliable.
- Compact & Lightweight: The insulated enamel steel tank measures about 45 × 27 × 27 cm (18 × 10.6 × 10.6 in) and weighs only 2.8 kg (6.3 lbs) empty — ideal for tight camper layouts.
- Built for Adventure: Durable construction with enhanced insulation keeps heat in longer and boosts performance on-the-go.
Easy to Use & Install
Whether paired with a hand pump or a low-pressure (≤ 4 bar / 68 PSI) water system, installation is simple and intuitive — making this heater a versatile addition to DIY van builds or fully equipped RVs.
Important: This unit is intended for non-potable water only. Internal components (like the anode rod) and heating characteristics mean the water is not safe to drink.
