Sheesh! How much water does one need for a shower? Get wet, turn it off. Rinse off, takes a little longer, turn it off. Doubt if the whole operation uses more than a few gallons.
10gal, maybe 8gal, water heater here. Dry camping, turn propane on for 15-20 minutes. Certainly no more than 30 minutes then turn it off. Do dishes, both have showers & not run out of hot water.
Guess the difference is both of us were raised conserving water. No city water, no well water where we live. The water we have falls on our homes roof, runs into a tank under the house, from there we have our own pressure system to pump it through the house. Just like an RV really. It is rain water or no water. You learn not to waste real fast.
