I found this locally:

. . . this the stuff?

Also offered is Oil Dri for automotive use. Really good for liquids. I use it in the shop.

My 'camping' is 6-8X a year at a model flying field where there is a weekend flying event. I manufacture servos and attend events not to sell but to show the flag and fly my models. Usually arrive Friday, fly all day Saturday, maybe fly Sunday morning before departing mid-day Sunday. Once home, park rig for a few weeks, rinse, repeat, all through the summer. So the truck is mostly a place to charge and work on models, sleeping arrangements ill be rudimentary. Purchased an air mattress because I desire an open floor plan. Only closed off place is the bathroom. Partly for your sake because you don't want to see or smell me doing my business, partly for my sake because of large home-size shower with plenty of water because my wife's never been in the Navy and detests the very concept of a military shower (her father was in the navy, and mine was was Sergeant Major in the Army so we both know how). Anyway, twice daily wasteful showers is why I'll carry lots of water (and I also have in mind an instant-on gas water heater for my setup. You mentioned it was Chinese origin. I don't mind that. Which one did you use? And if you recall, about how costly was it? Also, do you have transportation-certified propane gas bottle? In the USA, permanent installations must be DOT certified (I believe). Anyone with better information, please speak up!
