Tom,
Well said. Those must have been quick morning showers. AquaHot only gets to about 185 or so with diesel engine heat from driving. Some of that will be lost overnight, so good job on water conservation.
There is one more thing that may be interesting to document here. The AquaHots that Newell ordered, if not unique, are certainly unusual. They were ordered with two electric heater elements. One is a 115vac heater, the other 220vac. That allows one to heat water even when plugged into a 30A post. When plugged into 220vac both heaters function and it really heats the water up much more quickly than most other AquaHots with only one element. I love balancing all my loads to get the most from the power I use which happens not to be metered at my summer site and save my diesel fuel. I know you could appreciate this - Ha!
