Dry-flush toilet

[FTTRV]

Just saw this Dry-Flush Toilet for RV's and Boats. Some of you Modders should like this one.

Sounds like a diaper-genie without the diaper.

It's probably good for regular crap too

Another great product to put on my ever growing wish list... of things I'll never afford.

Some videos.

It does look like it creates a lot of waste to get rid of waste though. Not exactly environmentally friendly from that perspective.

After viewing the video, I think that Red Green could make one out of a 5 gallon bucket, some garbage bags and an old windshield wiper motor.

It looks like there are Space Blankets in there to?

Force Flex bag in a standard plastic rv crapper (or bucket) a lot cheaper. Sanity and sanitation only cross paths in the dictionary. So you go ashore with your bag of bags and somehow it finds its way into a compactor truck. Oh yeh!

* I had to look these specs up * BUT, I don't mind geekness for a snicker..

Average adult removes 2 liters of liquid from themselves a day. Thats a little over 2 lbs. The tootsie roll production is another 2 lbs. So..if you are "Average" you make a little over 4 pounds of product a day.

The cartridge has 15 bags. If you go into production 3 times a day (Probably more..but lets use 3 for typical healthy (sigh) younger folks, your cartridge will last 5 days.

5x4.xxlbs = a little over 20 lbs of luscious product to haul per disposal. I don't know about you, but flinging 20lbs of poo into a dumpster that is almost as tall as me does not sound like fun.

I like the concept, and do use wag bags when I am long term without hook ups. (Yes, it's legal in my area) This seems a great solution, but I wish the cartridges had LESS capacity to keep the weight down.

Right now, I have a porta potti and am fashioning a solution to be able to dump it IN the trailer using the leftover infrastructure for the recirculating toilet. For the time being, I have to haul it to the sewer..not a big deal, unless it gets full when that is not convenient. I have nowhere to put a black tank easily in the Leocraft.

Actually a liter of water weighs 1 kilogram or 2.2 pounds so total would be 6.4 +- just to be totally geeky correct.

[Gina D.]

You are correct! It's a weighty subject...gives you even more "stuff" to consider.

That's over 30 lbs of poo.... I hate dumping my litter box..think of the other possibilities with this...

I had a friend with a "Trained Cat".

The only problem with it was that he had 1 bathroom and you did not want to be in there if the cat needed to use it!

how much are the refill cartridges I wonder?

Firstly I can see that this would have a pretty high operational cost due to having to buy the cartridges but it could get even pricier if you got caught dumping human waste into the garbage can in a lot of places. Even disposable diapers are suppose to have the contents emptied into a flush toilet prior to placing it in the garbage.

[deryk]

so how are they able to sell it if its illegal to dump it?
