I do already have a couple of the solar showers. They work great for what they are, but are not a good means of storing and transporting water. I am looking at this as a solution to storing a relatively large amount of water, and not occupying space inside my burb. And, if on the roof, gravity kinda takes care of getting accessing the water, and could be pressurized to 10-20psi if needed for showering.
As for the UV aspect...At work we use a piping called polypro. it is an industrial process piping made to handle some pretty aggressive chemicals, and be installed outside/UV resistant. We currently have plenty for me to sneak up on enough to meet my needs.
I'm pretty sure, at this point, that this is the direction I am going for wash water storage. On most trips it'll be more water than I need. But in the rare instance where I need more, the added capacity, without impinging on my in-vehicle room, will be nice to have.
BTW, I like the 5gal bucket washing machine idea myself. I will file that one away!
