| two or three times a week i walk accros the border to matamoros mexico and have a meal.this morning as i was walking by a big appliance store there was a guy demonstrating a washing machine.it resembeled a shopvac.basicly this thing snapped onto any 5 gallon bucket and washed your clothes.it was 110 volt.it was no bigger than the top of a shopvac.you put your clothes in along with water and soap and pluged it in.there was a drain fitting on the bottom for the spin cycle.this guy had a pile of dirty jeans and the ones he pulled out were very clean.this would be real handy for my rpod.im going back with a freind that speaks spanish and find out more.the price was 1760 pesos which is about 161 dollars.i googled everything i could think of but to no avail.has anyone seen these? |

Sounds interesting, might really be useful on a long trip instead of wasting vacation time sitting in a laundromat. You could run it from an inverter going down the road.
