Oxygenics Shower Head

What cracks me up about the people at Quartzsite who sell and promote it, tell "clueless" customers that it "injects more OXYGEN" into your shower for a "More invigorating" shower. YEAH SURE IT DOES! Our air, on our earth anyway, contains very close to 21% Oxygen, NO MORE! So, INJECTING any more than what's in our air is impossible.

While we do have one, and the DW loves it, it's really no more than an aerated shower head. We've been taking "Navy" showers since we met and got married, over 29 years ago. So, conserving while camping has been in practice for generations, even our kids do it and, we even do it at home. But, we don't have an one of those shower heads at home.

I loved this little doozy of advertising with it;

"The oxygen helps to purify the water by creating negatively charged ions that counter damaging free radicals".

All that from a showerhead! Really?

Did the one you bought have the integrated on off switch in the handle?

The one we bought has a push in and out button to shut the water off in between sudsing and rinsing.

Lots more said about it HERE:B

I bought one after being told how great they are. I used it twice, didnt like it so it now rests in the closet corner out of sight. I like more water in the shower and dont boondock. I recommed you think about it before buying.. Thats my .02 worth.

Yes, it came with the on/off valve. It mounts between the bottom of the shower head and the hose. Works great.

We've had ours for about 6 months and love it. It also is good for when the water pressure in the campground is low, or when their water is so soft soap won't rinse off well.

You can do a simple test as I did to find out the flow when fully open. Get at least a 2 gallon or bigger bucket and a watch. turn shower faucet on full, both hot and cold. start watch and at the same time put the shower head into the bucket. Let run for 1 minute and immediately remove shower head from bucket, shut shower off. Now measure how much water is in the bucket. In my case it was 1 and 1/2 gallons in one minute. or 1 1/2 GPM . So if you have a 6 gallon water heater and you mix hot and cold at 50 50, (6 gallons hot and 6 gallons cold) you can take a 8 minute full blast shower before running out of hot water. Turn the water faucet down a little and you can probably run that out to 10 minutes. `What's not to like about that???? I just turn the hot water on full and then add just as much cold until the temp is just like I want it, never nave to turn cold on full blast, just experiment ad you will get it right. Great investment.
