Large Sodium Thiosulfate Order? Agitation In The Field?

Looking to do a 30-50 Kilo order of Sodium Thiosulfate (Hypo) order in the next few days. Hypo is a fixing agent I can use in my normal darkroom or more importantly in my wet plate photo trailer for the large glass plates of the AMBROTOS KANATA photo project.

Also looking to possibly set up an agitation system for the extended washes necessary. My friend Kurt M in Italy who does ULF plates using Hypo Fixer, washes plates in the field for upwards of 2 hours.

Something like this device or many of these devices might work to help ease the agitation monotony and work.
