1. Charge the Pump Battery

Before heading out, fully charge the pump using the USB-C cable. This allows you to rinse cordlessly.

2. Place Tankogo Lite Securely

Place Tankogo Lite upright on a stable surface, such as the ground or a bench.

Make sure it is not easy to tip over, especially around children or pets.

For convenience, Tankogo can also remain inside a vehicle or trunk during use — simply take the shower head outside to rinse.

3. Fill the Tank

Open the top lid and fill the built-in 15L tank with clean water.

• Use clean water from campgrounds, beaches, or public facilities whenever possible
• You may also use reasonably clean water from rivers or lakes if needed
• For best performance, fill at least half the tank before heating
  

The included 8L refill bag makes topping up easier without moving the unit.

4. Mount for Hands-Free Use (Optional)

Use the showerhead hanger or suction cups to attach to smooth surfaces like vehicles, or hang it wherever works best.

1. Does Tankogo Lite need to be plugged in to work?

No, Tankogo Lite is powered by the built-in rechargeable battery. Simply charge the unit by USB-C before use.

2. How long does the battery last?

A fully charged battery can power spraying up to 18 tanks (72 gal / 270 L)

3. Can I use seawater, muddy water, or dirty water?

No. Do not use seawater, muddy water, or heavily dirty water.

Salt, debris, and dirt can damage the heating elements and pump. Using these water types will void the warranty.

Tankogo is designed for:

• Clean water from faucets at campgrounds, beaches, or public facilities
• Reasonably clean freshwater from rivers or lakes when necessary

4. Can I add soap, shampoo, or fragrances to the tank?

No. Do not add soap, fragrance, or any chemicals to the water tank.
Doing so can damage internal components and will void the warranty.
If you need soap, apply it externally and rinse using clean water only.

5. Can I submerge Tankogo in water to fill it?

No. Do not immerse Tankogo partially or fully in water.

To fill the tank:

• Use a faucet directly, or
• Use a hose to guide water into the tank, or
• Use the included 10L collapsible refill bag to carry water from a river, lake, or hard-to-reach source

6. What temperatures can Tankogo operate in?

Tankogo is designed to operate between 2°C and 65°C (35°F–149°F).

Avoid:

• Operating outside this temperature range
• Leaving Tankogo in direct hot sun for extended periods

Prolonged exposure above 49°C / 120°F may damage the lithium battery and could pose a safety risk.

7. Can I pour boiling water into the tank?

No. Warm water is fine, but never pour boiling water into the tank.

8. Can Tankogo freeze?

No. Do not leave Tankogo frozen.
Freezing temperatures can damage the pump, hose, and internal components.

9. What is the pressure release valve and why is it important?

Tankogo includes a pressure release valve built into the tank cap.

This valve regulates internal pressure as water is pumped out, preventing the tank from cracking or collapsing.

Important care notes:

• Do not cover the cap
• Do not block the valve
• Clean the cap and valve if dirt or debris builds up

Blocking the valve can cause damage to the tank.

10. Why is the water pump not working?

There are a few common reasons the pump may not be running:

• Battery is not charged: Make sure Tankogo has been charged via USB-C before use.
• System is not powered on: Ensure Tankogo is turned on by pressing and holding the power button for 2 seconds.
• Shower head valve is closed:
  Press the black side of the button on the shower head to release water.
  Press the red side to stop the flow.
