You do NOT want to try this with an old used sprayer! You can never get those old chemicals out completly, and generally what lands in a sprayer like this is pesticides and weed killer...
This one is a two gallon tank and since it was new, was perfect for the conversion to a running water tank. I bought a foot of copper pipe the same diameter as the sprayer wand; I also bought the fittings that fit the 5/16, copper pipe, a 1/8 yo 1/2 pipe adapter, and that was about it. Out of my collection of parts; I already had another sprayer head, a valve, a clamp and a barbed fitting.
The job was quick: assemble the metal parts together, mock up the copper "goose-neck" and cut the hose to an appropriate length. then put the hose on the barbed fitting on the south end of the tubing assembly, and use a hose clamp to lock the hose on. done!
Well, almost done. the shower head weight made the friction fit on the handle clip chancy for staying put, so I dug elsewhere in my collection and found a laboratory hose clamp that the design allowed it to be captive, and quickly clamped the the copper tube to the handle securely.
NOW it's done!
two sides of the clamp in use:
and with the clamp lose showing it won't get lost.
I have since painted the tank body flat black so it will also take solar heating very well, However, this one will NOT be able to go into a camp fire, the water would have to be heated separately if not done with solar.
I think this one will be for day trips, picnics, and the like, as well as possibly a tank I keep in the rig while one of the other tanks does camp duty.
