Buy this water bed water changer or this python replacement connector. Buy this hose. Buy this brass adapter.

Congratulations. You have a 50 foot python for less than $25. You can build a part out of PVC that hangs on the side of your tank for less than $5 and it'll let you control the flow of the water into or out of your tank. Not having to stand at your tank during water changes is nice.
another idea is installing an exterior shower box kit right underneath that kitchen sink. You could cut it out with an angle grinder and silicone it in, plus 4 self-tapping screws and a couple of plumbing fittings. Total under $50, probably 2 hour job. https://www.amazon.com/Dura-Faucet-DF-SA170-WT-Exterior-Shower/dp/B004NBJM5G
Just replace it with a brass fitting.

Edit: quick connect will disappoint you.
I want you to know that I'm very disappointed that this was the closest thing to a sex toy I could find on your list. Sheesh.
These work very well wired to use the original switch connection. Toggle switches and full time cobbled up bullshit is always a bad idea.
You might just need a real radiator if yours is plastic.
Some models wire differently than others, knowing your year would help.
If you do end up tankless and I would only ever recommend a gas fired one, because houses are rarely wired to handle the additional load. Be sure to get some sort of drain pan like this: https://www.amazon.com/Camco-11470-Tankless-Heater-Fitting/dp/B0060HOUJO
Unless its in a garage and it just doesn't matter if it leaks (and it will)
Mine has a 5 micron filter. The other has a 100 micron filter. Also, the filter in mine is replaceable: http://www.amazon.com/Camco-40621-Premium-Replacement-Cartridge/dp/B00523AV54/
Yup that's a good one. Also, for water connection make sure you're using a hose design for drinking water, just in case. Something like this: [Hose]

Had the same problem. Installed an air gap. Due to the location I couldn't get the loop high enough. I bought https://www.amazon.com/Design-House-522946-Dishwasher-Polished/dp/B007CW1B8O/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1473036838&sr=8-2&keywords=dishwasher+air+gap from amazon for $10 and it solved my problem. To get rid of the smell I ran a rinse load with 1/2 cup of bleach.
This one is good...

But the bigger the better. The bigger it is the less your pump ever needs to run to refill. I have a very quiet duetto and that pump kicking on everytime you pull a shot was driving me insane.
If there happens to be a water tap coming off the main water line (eg, I have one in my backyard that comes right off the line before it goes to the house) you could use one of these - https://www.amazon.com/Winterize-Motorhome-Camper-Travel-Trailer/dp/B0056XBBB8/
I should clarify because I seemed to have misunderstood what a sanke is. I don't want to use a keg for a few reasons and I can't easily get one so I doubt I will. I want to use a large stockpot, 5-7 gallons, but am new to this hobby so still concerned about safety.
Is the process of installing an electric heating element as simple as soldering a flange with interior threads that a heating element like this can screw into? Would a soldered seal be enough for the pressure of a boiling liquid overtop of the seal? What safety risks do I then run? Should I unscrew the heating element after each run to clean?
I'm thinking of using this to extend a faucet in my garage.
Camco 22475-X Water Diverter https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B003BZD01W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_i_TVjVCbS7TY4EE
> 6 gallon Atwood water heater with electric, gas, and a heat exchanger
https://www.amazon.com/Atwood-GEH9-EXT-Electric-Exchanger-Gallon/dp/B00CLSUIU6
The water coming out of both places should be from the same source so there shouldn't be a difference but I'd recommend getting some dedicated drinking water hose. No worry about anything leeching from the hose then.

Neat idea. Would you perhaps be looking at something like this?
Facon 3" x 8" Elbow Pipe Heater Pad, Work for 1-1/2" Elbow Pipe on RV, Camper, Travel Trailer, 13.5V DC(Pack of 3) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01MUC7XI5/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_V88RDbGFHW55X
Not sure if the voltage is picky or not with this item, but I've used a buck converter for a project to dial in voltage.

Adjustable. :D

I would caution against mounting outside of the cabin unless you provide a under/over temperature circuit. LiPO cells really don't like to be charged or discharged under 0'C or over 40'C.
The common solutions to this are using a self regulating "Holding Tank heater" (Like this: https://www.amazon.com/Upgrade-Version-Facon-Automatic-Thermostat/dp/B077VLB1KK/ ) to keep temp above 45'F.
The other side I was planning on was using a PC Watercooling setup triggered to start at 40C (105'F) and circulate glycol through the built in cooling channels and then through the PC Cooler's radiator.
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079T72D1X is the water tank I’m using. It’s a recpro 100 gallon model. The bump on the right has an air intake, the one on the left is empty. Bed is going to go between them, I’m gonna use a full xl, which is a perfect fit at 53 inches across.
I’m going to put my mini split outdoor unit in the empty bump on the left. No engine access was covered up, there are two doors on the outside of the bus that give access to everything in the engine bay.
