I use a blow dryer after showering to help dry off my skin and pouch and find this very helpful. I am going camping soon and wondered if anyone knows where I could find a cheap battery-powered hair dryer. All I can find online are $60+.

I use a little shower curtain to keep my bag dry. It will keep the direct spray off. I then change my bag or just pat it off with a towel.

How about $17? Try searching for "wireless" instead of "cordless" and you'll have a few choices. I doubt you'll find
a quality dryer for less than $60, but it might last for the camping trip. And at that price, you can buy two... just in case.

I use the hard plastic cover on my wafer package and fan my "little buddy" dry. Takes a minute. Fan underneath and blow down on top.
