55 litre water bladder

[threedogs]

hi me again as I'm down sizing my gear so I can travel as light as I can.
I was thinking of buying one of these bladders for across the rear passenger floor.
Has anyone had any experience with them? I have a 55 Dolium plastic tank in my trailer,
but that will stay with the trailer when I sell it.
Things I'd like to know is does the water taste like plastic etc.

Yes I have a 60lt in the rear footwell. I have set it up semi permanent through a 12v pump and permanent tap mounted to the rear small door. Running water on demand.

Inlaws have a poly tank. 55l which fits in the middle row foot well.
Being poly it's made to be at the bottom of the pile so you have piece of mind when packing around it.
I'll try find more info.

Sorry. It's only 40 but unsure if they do bigger.
Called a boab. This is it here.

It's not cheap. But won't break

thanks I have the Boab tank in my camper 55ltrs and its a hoot but does not suit my future plans
I'll stick with the bladder I think as no ones in the back anyway

My mates got a 110 ltr bladder across the 2nd row floor and his kids walk over it when its full (5&7 yrs old) after seeing his ill be getting one next trip we do without the camper

I got the 100L one and sits behind front seats, also have two kids and it sits inside a canvas bag, no problems yet with it.

Have looked at those bladders a few times, they seem like a good option and keep the weight nice and low too.

I took the same bladder as Darren on the Simpson trip. Mine is less fancy though just gravity feed.
Worked well, but tastes crap! Lol good for cooking and cleaning but not for drinking.

I use one of these, 55l, on the floor behind the front seats. The advantage it has over a bladder is the lack of that awful plastic taste, and it is more robust in my opinion.
