Elle Turner grew up in Australia during “The Big Dry,” a\/k\/a the Millennium Drought. For 14 years, Australia’s southeast suffered a crippling water shortage. To make every drop count, Turner’s family placed a bucket in the shower before they turned it on. Thus, while they were waiting for the shower to warm up, the initial stream would be captured and used in the garden.<\/p>\n

Now married and with a family, Turner maintained the habit. “We still use a bucket in the shower every day\u2026. My two young boys now slosh water down the hallway on their way to water the garden, just as I did.”<\/p>\n

This frugal habit is, alas, a bit messy. Carrying a bucket of water through a house or down a staircase, without spilling, is challenging; the heavy bucket tends to rub against your leg. Thus Turner invented this SEVAS<\/a> device:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It has a 5-liter capacity, and its slim form factor makes it easier to tuck out of the way than a bucket.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

It’s also, like the Jerry can, easier to carry at one’s side than a cylindrical bucket.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

A nozzle can be attached to make pouring easier. <\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The SEVAS runs $80. <\/p>\n
