Heating water outdoors have always been a challenge, as heating water requires a lot of energy. Traditionally there has been several ways to accomplish this task, all with significant drawbacks. Gas based systems, for instance, are bulky taking up precious space and require constant replenishment. Electrical systems are almost nonstarter as it takes very long time and strains the 12 volts electric system. Solar systems only work during the day and not when the campers most need them while camping at night or early morning before resuming the trip.

On the other hand, heat exchange-based system that draws the heating energy from the car cooling system is very fast, compact, available any time and GREEN as it utilizes wasted engine heat. However, the systems available in the market are either from hobbyist DIY or at best a collection of heat exchanger hardware and fittings offered by some vendors. The HotBox was development over 1.5 years of R&D and prototyping and vigorous testing. The result is a complete plug and play solution that is feature rich and offer heated water for life with a press of a button. Since its launch in 2020, the product became camper’s favorite gadget.

The system, first and to date the only one of its kind in the world, is patent protected.
