So... Shower with no power. Instant gas heaters are the best option. Cheap to run, steady temp, no electricity needed.

Well, once in one place I rented I had to change the 9v battery that was used to light/spark it, but otherwise, no electricity needed at all.

Don't have household gas? Just connect it to a gas bbq bottle. For me, I had to swap it every month, but for a family, I'd probably get a bigger canister. They're all fairly cheap to refill-swap.

Tankless are so much better in every way.

I'd love to see a tankless that you can run without power, also please don't hook up a natural gas tankless to propane..

I mean, it was just a common off the shelf unit, wasn't anything special, but I don't live there anymore. I can msg the landlord to get a photo or something of the model number if you want to buy one?

I mean, what does it need power - beyond the 9v battery for the starter - for?

And as for propane, why not? That's what they're designed and built for. You're weird.

Inducer motor for starters. This blows hot gasses outside. Circuit boards need power, the switches and relays on the boards. There's programming and timings that are on the boards. Most models now also have wifi modules too.

Wut? No. None of that.

Programming for what? What switches and relays? You have no idea what you're on about. 🤦

Are you talking tank, or tankless. Tankless gas all of that

Tank can easily have none except solenoid in valve

Goddamn you're an idiot. Were your parents more inbred than the Habsburgs?

Actually, you're a waste of time. Get fucked and be added to the Blocklist

Stop being a useless human

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

No, you're being added to the blocklist!

😂 Fuck me that's such a dumb, childish thing to say, since you obviously didn't. You just said it because you're having a little toddler temper tanty. 😂🤦

Go on. Block me. Do it. Stop talking about it like anyone cares about you or anything you say.

You have no idea what you're talking about, so fuck right off. Go on. Get out of here.

"Be added to the blocklist" 😂 ah, fuck me that's some funny shit.

Wanna actually say what the fucn you're talking about or are you just talking half words to cause confusion

ALL tankless heaters need power and have electronics and circuit boards. Idiot.

Tanks can easily require no power.

The fuck are you smoking and why are you still replying and now just insulting me for no apparent reason other then because you're a child.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Look at you, making up lies to try not sound like a complete retard. 🤦 Goddamn you're an idiot.

Are you on the blocklist yet?

No u.

While the place I previously rented used a 9V battery as its only source of power, I double checked our current tankless hotwater heater.

No mains power, no battery. No electronics, no circuitry.

Just gas and water.

Fuck you're dumb. 😂🤦
