Somewhere between a featherweight shell and a tank built like a bridge sits the RV46W: 77 lb of natural polyethylene holding 45 gallons of fresh water. Ronco's sheet carries it as the 46W L.D. - the...

Of Ronco's five 45-gallon fresh water moldings, the RV47W is the one you can plan around from your armchair: 36 x 23 x 13 inches, published. A compact block - three feet by two, just over a foot tall...

Ronco's price sheet actually stamps this mold at 58 gallons; we catalog the RV48W at a working 55. Under-promising is a good habit in a water tank, and the dimensions are honest either way: 40 x 24 x...

Ronco's sheet lists the RV49W as the 49 W L.D., 25 gallons of fresh water in the light-duty potable series. W-series tanks are the drinking-water side of the catalog: FDA-compliant natural...

Mold number 4W is one of the low numbers in Ronco Plastics' fresh-water book, and low numbers mean longevity: this 60-gallon shape has been earning its keep since the era when Ronco - rotomolding in...

Ronco's own price sheet calls this molding the 50W L.D. and rates it 27 gallons; we list it conservatively at 26. Either way, the story is the shape: 50 x 16 x 8 inches, a long low slab of fresh...

Ronco's fresh water line peaks in depth at 45 gallons - five distinct moldings at this one capacity - and the RV51W is the most heavily built of them, an 85 lb shell listed on the maker sheet as the...

Five feet of water tank, sixteen inches wide: the RV52W runs 60 x 16 x 8 inches, the longest and narrowest way Ronco packages 32 gallons of fresh water. This is the tank for the frame-rail run, the...

Seventy inches long, 16 wide, 8 tall. The RV53W is essentially a fresh water girder - 38 gallons stretched into a profile that slides between floor joists or along a single frame rail where no...

Twenty-four pounds. Most 60-gallon tanks take two people and some swearing to get into a basement bay; the RV54W is a 24 lb molding one installer can carry under an arm, thanks to a broad,...

Think of the RV55W as a week of water. Sixty-five gallons covers a full-timer couple's drinking, cooking, and washing for days of dry camping, and that capacity bracket - above the common 55s and...

On Ronco's own price sheet this mold is the 56W, stamped at a conservative 7 gallons; we catalog it at the 9 gallons it actually holds. Either way the geometry is the selling point: 20.5 x 12.75 x 8...
