I started designing this kind of device. In addition to tracking consumption, the concept had automatic mixing of hot/cold water to get good stable temperature. And a timer to facilitate non-continuous showers, press once to get wet, then soap in while shower is off, press again to rinse off.

I'm guessing you might be able to make money selling that to, e.g. the military, but not to regular people. Most take showers at least in part to relax, and that sounds like it would kill any possibility of relaxation.

Agreed, at least in volume. Which is more or less needed for a hardware product like this. There might be one can reach some thousands via the Internet, maybe using a Kickstarter type platform. But probably would quickly saturate its own niche market.
