Playa Shower
Instead of using a standard solar shower which
Use a Garden sprayer (one gallon is sufficient but two might be a bit better) with the misting sprayer replaced with a kitchen sink sprayer.
To make this cut the sprayer itself off the garden sprayer hose.
Use a 1/4 inch male MIP to 1/4 inch barb fitting to connect the two.
You may or may not wish to use a solar shower bag for heating the water. Black pots and pans work as well or you can just heat a few cups of water to boiling on the stove and add it to a gallon of desert temperature water.
With this I can take complete showers with less than one gallon of water (including washing and conditioning long hair) since I only use water explicitly where and when it's needed. If you want to be more efficient still, shower with a friend, since they can see and rinse your back with less water (or at least that's the excuse I use).
Fountain Pump
Use a small fountain pump to transfer your melt water from your cooler to whatever you're storing your shower water in. This is almost the only way of getting cooler water directly into a shower bag without spilling lots of it. You'll also need some 1/4" inside diameter hose but it's easiest to just buy 4 feet of that at home depot rather than buying a roll of it somewhere online.
Electric
My camp has a generator and a space for charging batteries. But I don't like leaving my chargers or devices out where they are going to be playafied. So I use a small 12v battery (8Ah is fine, I use 18Ah batteries because that's what I have) and either a small inverter or just use car chargers for all of my devices. Then I just have my 12v battery charger out in the open and most of those are designed for harsher environments and when that's charged I take it into my tent to charge my camera batteries and the like.
Can you recommend any?
Will this barb & tubing be compatible?

The chamber says it comes with (2) Brass Barb that Fits 1/4” ID Hose. I just want to make sure I'm getting absolutely all the right things I need to connect. It looks like the pump that I linked, a Yellow Jacket Ritchie 93560 has a 1/4" and 3/8" male flare intakes, so I think I would need something else.
