new shower?
 

O M G

the loved one plans to have this installed when we remodel the bathroom.

I don't know how to react.

as a man, me want! Gadgets!

As the guy who has to pay for it... Yeesh!

Reactions?

I had a friend in Michigan who bought something similar. His electric bill went up so much that he hardly used it after a few months. I haven't kept in touch with him, so I don't know what he ended up doing, but I think he was trying to sell it. This was several years ago.

You might want to estimate operating costs before you spend a lot of money on that.

You don't have to use it, just the bragging rights to the picture in your wallet are worth a few grand.

It's got MP3 compatibility and a video screen.... what are you waiting for???

Well seein as your gone Most of the time ,
if it will Make HER happy , I say Go for it ,
as long as when you get home she helps YOU enjoy it !!

Can't you just install that in the truck and heat it with diesel? That would be ideal.

she doesn't have a job?

Can't you get one without the tv?

Is this a crime?

(I'm guessing she looks after the pooches he brings home while he's on the road....)

crime, not at all. just wondering if the statement was accurate.

Me want, too!

Brian--I know you know what certain naughty girls do with flexible shower heads, right?

Two shower heads are the best. I have them. One is the flexible, the other just standard. The flexible is an amazing turn on when used properly. :blush: :3some:

you are both correct...she works at home and watches the boys while I'm on the road working long and hard.

Brianna : Brian--I know you know what certain naughty girls do with flexible shower heads, right?

Yes I do.

I love frugal women!

The specs say it pulls up to 42 amps!

I'd have to run heavier-gauge wire to even RUN the thing.

But the coolness factor must be factored in. As God is my witness, I don't know what to do.

I'll report later.

If it increased your electric bill by $100/month, would that break your budget?

Holy cow. I'll bet my entire house rarely exceeds that.

A friend installed something similar to this in his house. It's called the "party shower", for obvious reasons. BUT - when all the pumps are a-pumpin', this thing pushes about 20 gallons of water per minute.
He had to put a 200 gallon reserve tank in his basement. After all that, I don't think it gets used much, beyond the basic shower stuff.

Looking for a new shower?

I recommend The Silkwood 9000:

WANT!!!

Do NOT want. I'd take it with jets on 3 sides, I guess.... but I don't want to be completely surrounded

I'd like to try it but don't want the hot water bill. I'd need a giant hot water heater to go with it.

I feel like I would use less water this way. On for five seconds, then soap up, then on for fifteen seconds rinse. Done in less than a minute.

Then on for one more second to wash the last hair bit down the drain. What, it's head hair. Mostly.

I like to luxuriate in the hot water a little after I'm done washing ...unless I really need to dash out. This is too much

I'm with you, monster, time to wake up, warm up and loosen up. Used to shit, shower, and shave, in ten minutes. When I gave up shaving I allocated that time to the shower.

With that kind of water pressure, you could practically shit in the shower and it would power wash right down the drain.

The twin jets overhead look like you could power wash the deck, but the horizontal heads don't look that strong. They are tossing streams toward the middle but not that fast from the way they're arcing. With water coming from every direction you couldn't even get soap on you, no less wash. So you'd have to step out or shut down to lather up, like UT said.

Now that's just crazy talk, what keeps my back warm when I'm washing the front? That might work for you skinny fuckers, but I've got acreage to groom. http://cellar.org/2012/nono.gif

Good luck trying to make out with your lover in that shower; or, even trying to pick up something you've dropped for that matter.

(Warning - one link slightly NSFW)

Many moons ago while resident in early-perestroika Russia I had a couple of "sharko shower" treatments. I thought it was brilliant. Brutal but brilliant. I considered franchising it in the west (that should be in the business ideas thread, but I'm sure y'all can just imagine it's there).

So these would be used for hydro-therapy exclusively, separate from a shower for cleaning? The pictures make it appear to be much greater than the stated 3 feet from the nozzles to the subject. It sounds from the description of varying the pressure and temperature of the water, you'd need a trained operator, or a pretty astute robot, to handle that.
Malwarebytes won't let be get to the third link.

Rioters can get those treatments for free when water cannons are deployed.

Yes, trained operators from more than 3 feet away (more like ten feet). It was more in the lines of a "hard pressure" therapeutic massage. The water seemed to be in biggish drops as it hit, though they could also adjust to a finer spray. Total nekkidness was required and you had to cover your "soft tissue" with your hands to prevent damage :eek:
That's a shame - that's where the partial nekkidness is (but do not go where you malware protection won't let you!).

Probably could have sold a ton of them to the CIA. :haha:

Can't imagine the water pressure needed to lake that work. I certainly don't have it here.
