Has anyone used this for an outdoor shower application?

That's from the American site and I can't find any listed on the Canadian one, but that's not to say they don't have something similar. I do know that Canadian Tire carries a drill-pump but I can't remember what the GPH is.

Edit2: Talk about timing, that very kit is on sale for 1/2 off if you buy some gas at CT.

$10 Home Depot Mckenzie is where I bought mine, want to know the PSI on it but non is listed.

My GF would hold it lol

CT one is better because you get the hoses to go with it.
