I'm curious about why there is no information on people doing Shower setups with electric heating?
I was looking at this Webasto water heater that ran off the diesel but it's super expensive so i was wondering if i could just get a nice tankless water heater and put that money into lithium batteries. I figure if have my water tank inside the van, a 54 amp heater with 13k watts would change the temperature from 70 to 106. I don't know the draw on like a 100 amp/hr battery would be. Is that half it's life in an hour? Would a charge controller help or is that just for bringing power into the batteries?

Anyways, looking to weld a pan into the floor. Trying to figure out shower curtain options.

this guy has it right. the webasto is just so pricy and i was thinking i'd do the heater with a rooftop a/c
