I bought an RO/DI unit a while back for my reef aquarium but have since sold the tanks. Now I'm thinking of selling the reverse osmosis unit but before I do, is there any use in a bus?
It seems like a whole lot of wasted water but I dunno.
If I get rid of it, anyone want one?

I would certainly take it if it were given to me. ;D
I didn't want to say it because it's not the right forum but I'd be selling it albeit at discount....it's new. ;)
It is pretty common for people to use bottled water when traveling. Since a lot of bottled water is just RO water, some people have a separate tank for drinking water. If you use one of the hot water units, that heat a small quantity of water very hot, at the kitchen sink you can have hot and cold RO water from a single faucet
I assume that you are talking about a Reverse Osmosis system? How does such as system "waste" water as you have said. The ones I am familiar with simply filter the water and there is no waste. Is yours different or am I thinking of a different type of filter system?
All RO's waste at least as much water as they provide, some are much worse.
I'd keep it. I have an RO with which I make water that I then put in a separate 20 gallon tank on da bus, just for drinking. But the RO unit stays at home.
Good stuff to drink!
As for the water RO units "waste" water, shuttle it out to your garden with drip line. There it will make plants really happy and not go to "waste"...
