Point of use and mini tank heaters
Camplux ME25 2.5 Gallon Specifications
Researched from the DOE test procedures, NFPA 54 and NEC code tables, and manufacturer specifications. Updated .
Quick answer
This page collects what is actually published about the Camplux ME25 2.5 Gallon and shows what those figures produce, computed rather than transcribed. Anything the listing does not publish is not filled in with an estimate.
Published specifications
Everything here is taken from the listing or the manufacturer, and nothing is inferred.
| Specification | Value |
|---|---|
| Gallons | 2.5 |
| Volts | 120 |
Published standard Source: Manufacturer listing data. A specification not listed here is one this listing does not publish. Check the installation manual for the full data plate.
Why there is no performance table on this page
This listing does not publish an input rating in BTU per hour or in kilowatts, and without one there is nothing to compute a flow rate or a recovery rate from. Estimating it from the price or from the physical size would produce a confident number with nothing behind it, so this page does not.
The installation manual for this model publishes the input rating on its data plate. Once you have that figure, the recovery rate calculator and the tankless sizing calculator will do the rest.
How it sits against the rest of its category
Other point of use and mini tank heaters in this catalog: Eemax HATB007240 Tank Booster 7.2kW, Rheem RTEX-06T 6.5kW Point of Use, ThermoMate 2.5 Gallon Mini Tank, ThermoMate ES250B 2.5 Gallon.
Compare them on input rating and on the figures the manufacturer actually publishes rather than on the headline number in the listing title, which in this category is frequently a maximum measured under conditions the listing never states.
Other point of use and mini tank heaters
Eemax HATB007240 Tank Booster 7.2kW
$327.15A booster is a different animal: it sits downstream of a tank and lifts the outlet temperature during a heavy draw rather than heating from cold.
Best for: A tank that runs out at the end of the second shower

Rheem RTEX-06T 6.5kW Point of Use
$189.00Thermostatic rather than fixed output, which on a point of use heater is the difference between a usable hand wash and a scald risk at the tap.
Best for: A remote sink on a 240 volt circuit

ThermoMate 2.5 Gallon Mini Tank
$189.99A 2.5 gallon tank on a standard 120 volt receptacle, which is the only point of use option that needs no electrical work at all.
Best for: A sink far from the heater, with an outlet under it

- What are the specifications of the Camplux ME25 2.5 Gallon?
- The listing publishes gallons, volts and related figures, shown in full in the table on this page. Anything not shown is something the listing does not publish, and this page does not estimate it.
- Is this page based on hands-on testing?
- No, and we never claim otherwise. Everything here is compiled from the manufacturer listing, published specifications and the energy relations that turn those specifications into flow and recovery figures. We do not test products in person. Where a figure is not published, this page says so rather than estimating it.
- Are the prices on this page current?
- They come from verified catalog data at the time the page was built, and prices in this category move often. Treat any price shown as a guide and check the listing itself before deciding. Availability moves even faster than price does on water heater accessories in particular.
A water heater is a pressure vessel. The temperature and pressure relief valve is the one component on it that is never capped, plugged or removed, and a valve that will not open when you lift the test lever has failed and needs replacing rather than ignoring. If the valve weeps after the heater runs, that is thermal expansion in a closed system and the answer is an expansion tank or a pressure reducing valve, never a cap.
