Dry Toilet Problems

[@scottkinnebrew7924]

'Mimicking human crap' made me laugh way harder than it should have.

[@dframeIII]

I have one of these toilets and when it works, it works fine. I had the twist motor rust up solid, but it was obvious as the twist function had no motion or noise. It seems you did not engage the bucket onto the square key properly. These toilets are easy to work on, take it apart and see what is going on. Does the square key rotate with the bucket removed? Is the square key clamped to the shaft tightly...grab it and gently twist it. Does the gearbox shaft move or does the key rotate on the shaft (it is a simple clamped connection between the two). You can even pull motor leads off the circuit board and put straight 12v to the motors. Circuit board is labeled for motor function and polarity...usually the colored wire is positive (like purple, orange, red, etc.). Take back cover off and feel for air movement. If you feel air, it is vacuuming or blowing out which both air phases should do. Hope this helps.

It's obvious that the part that twists the bag is not working properly. It should be doing at least 3 full turns. you may not have installed the black bag properly.

[@traceyjennings4361]

Really need to Update this . Did you find solution. How was company customer service?

[@bray7197]

Yes reload your bags and make sure its seated right its not twisting the bags. and it will work just fine

[@wideawake5630]

Been using a plastic bag lined Luggable Loo for six and a half years full time. Simple, efficient, cheap.

[@bobn1378]

Make sure the bucket is engaged to the drive. Reread your directions. Mine works fine. Human error

[@g41thomas]

The Problem can be in two places 1. Check the plastic hexagonal cardboard at bottom of the mylor bag are they properly attach if so ... 2. Your problem is that the main white hexagonal shape container is not rotating and there is your problem. Hope this will you... Best solution Homer bucket and pack of Glad plastic bag ( preferably scented)

[@ohauntiej]

Agree, the mylar bag is not rotating. There is a square hole in the center of the octagonal cardboard bottom of the mylar bag that must align and inserted over the square axle hub end.

[@estherwatson-wynyard4234]

Have you sent this video to the manufacturer? Did they come back with a solution?

[@nextpagepj9058]

I was wondering the same thing.

[@Lockpickingblacksmith]

This idiot just installed the cartridge wrong. He clearly didn't bother contacting them before making this. Just like he hasn't bothered answering anyone, taking it down, or filming an update.

[@Lockpickingblacksmith]

@@nextpagepj9058 No, because the man is inept. Same reason it's not working.

simple fix guys read instructions and make sure the bucket is locked in to the gear drive

[@hermionegardener3796]

Thanks for this demonstration. I only just learned about this toilet and had apprehensions about it, I feel that if there are ever any mechanical or moving parts, something is bound to go wrong with it. And for a travel toilet, you don't want anything to go wrong or break, simple is best.

[@Lockpickingblacksmith]

Did you fuck up installing the cartridge like this guy?

[@cindyswanson8792]

What was the solution? We're having the extra same problem.

[@jerryfrost9987]

Hello Cindy. The use of the dry toilet stopped mattering shortly after I posted the video. The housemate who used the dry flush toilet moved out. Without him, there was no need to solve the dry flush toilet problem. Good luck to you!

[@sabrinasouth7317]

Did you ever get this figured out? I am having the same problem. I’ve gone through 3 cartridges and it has never worked right. Liquids never twist up.

[@jerryfrost9987]

No, we never figured it out. The plan was to discuss the situation with the dry toilet's manufacturer, referring them to this video. But shortly after we made this video, the person who wanted to use this toilet moved out of the house and into an assisted living situation. We had no incentive to work on the dry toilet after that. But the dry flush toilet did work the way it was supposed to for a couple years before it broke.

[@ericshop]

@@jerryfrost9987 I might be interested in buying this if you no longer have a use for it.

[@jerryfrost9987]

@@ericshop The toilet belonged to someone else. So I'm not in a position to sell it.

[@dlfleischerlmt]

Did this get fixed I would like to purchase one ,but on the fence

[@Lockpickingblacksmith]

Seems they screwed up using it, but clearly haven't bothered either taking the video down, putting up an update video, or even commenting on it themselves. Which is just disingenuous.

[@michaelpusheck1843]

Toilet is not broken. RE-READ the cartridge install directions. Then take this video down or amend it so you stop giving bad info to potential buyers

[@pattywattyann]

What have they done wrong?

[@ronguy4420]

@@pattywattyann the bucket must be placed properly on the bottom or they have a motor/gear problem. The vacuum is working but the bucket should twist. I’m thinking about this for a yard bathroom and a hand wash station.

[@youtubecommentpolice2043]

The round bowl underneath...isn't placed on evan

[@siri5522]

Could you adjust or readjust the bottom of the bag?

[@paulfriend4804]

Have you ensured the bucket is properly seated in its ratchet gear and the bag is inserted in the ratchet as well. That may be the problem. Good luck!

[@mysticalmisfit1332]

Too much going on with this toilet. Just sh&t in a bucket

[@juliushill5153]

Or the kitty litter box

[@liamthetraveller]

maybe the bag is getting to full?

[@cryptologic90]

5 year old video no update brooo how did you get it to work?

[@jerryfrost9987]

The person attempting to use the toilet suddenly moved out of the house. He left the toilet behind. But without him there, fixing the toilet lost all importance.

[@user-ys8wj5yx9t]

Why is no one talking about this man snatching up a bare fistful of kitty litter and then possibly touching the camera?

[@Chanhee]

Alana Corine Have you ever heard of gloves?

[@Chanhee]

Alana Corine Lmao nvm

[@davehigh6786]

Let's assume it was unused kitty litter.

[@DS-tj2jc]

I'm okay with pretending that didn't happen.

What about the AC/DC power supply in use, is it enough for the job? Might want to check the maximum amperes it can supply!

[@mssburr]

for a grid down situation I would want the incinerator toilet.

[@HeliPadUSA]

no you wouldn't as their own commercial tells you that they've never had anyone successfully use it off grid as it sucks so much power and runs for 30 mins for each 'flush'. Solar can't power it - they said so themselves in their promotion video here on YT.

[@curtbergeron703]

From what I’ve read, Incinolet makes a quality incinerating toilet, but they don’t make one that uses propane so I wouldn’t be draining down my batteries. I’ve read horror stories about the other two manufacturers of incinerating toilets. Poor quality and refusing to stand behind their warranties. Imagine spending $5k on a toilet and the company says too bad when it malfunctions. No thanks.

[@rustyholt6619]

deal breaker for me ,,,,, no critical infrastructure with circuit boards

[@injectionAI]

love the play by play

[@LizGRod]

It’s not twisting. Open it and see if black bag is still installed correctly.

[@Itsmecoolgurl]

This toilet cost to much for it to not work properly!!! And I'm shocked no one has figured out how to make the refill cartridges! Those things cost way to much! Not even worth it! Which is disappointing only because I really wanted to purchase one!!! Ugh

[@Lockpickingblacksmith]

It works fine, this idiot simply didn't push down slightly and it would be fine. It's literally the only video mentioning a problem. He didn't call the company first. He hasn't made an update video yet. As for the cartridge cost: it does seem that they could make it a bit taller so that there would be more space, thus more uses out of each cartridge. However, it's for tiny homes, RVs, etc, space is at a premium As for 'no one figuring out how to make them', I just learned this exists today and I've *already* figured it out, it's not difficult. The reason no one else manufactures them is either because there isn't enough profit margin to under cut Dry-Flush *and* make a profit, *or* it's because of a little thing called 'copyright infringement. Getting sued is bad for business.

[@Itsmecoolgurl]

@@Lockpickingblacksmith yeah after watching this video I figured out how to do it myself plus found other ways to make the bags last a little longer! So yep I changed my mind! I'd still purchase this toilet!

I found reviews on Amazon for this pricey option, only 1 out of 5 recommended. Apparently also have a long term reliability issue. Too bad, as I was interested.

[@Lockpickingblacksmith]

I don't know about 1 year ago, but amazon doesn't carry it now. This is the only thing I've found, anywhere, indicating it has a problem, much less a common problem. This is clearly user error.

[@stevebritt]

@@Lockpickingblacksmith You could be right since Embassy RV swears by them. Still, they are by far the most expensive RV/camping toilet option and will require the bag refills for the life of the toilet. (Embassy RV seems to gravitate toward the most expensive option throughout their RVs, that's why they cost so much.)

[@Lockpickingblacksmith]

@@stevebritt The incinerator toilets are an option as well, those are 3-6x more expensive, and the nature's head is a few hundred more. Yes, the refill cartridges are surely an added cost, but I'm sure sooner or later, probably sooner, their copyright will run out and walmart will start sell cartridges for $6. For the time being using a jar or whatever option you might choose to pee in instead will certainly save uses. For myself I'd get this for guests essentially, as it's the closest thing available to a household flush toilet. If I had unlimited electricity, but no flush plumbing, probably the incinerator option.

I think I'm going with a composting toilet for my tiny house, they are pretty pricey though.

[@phyllisstein1837]

you can't empty the toilet until all the mylar bags are used up. if you do you just have to waste all the remaining mylar bags (and they're not cheap). it's designed to use up all the mylar bags before it needs to be emptied. the mylar bags come in a cartridge from the same mfg and are all measured out for one use each and once all the mylar bags are used (15-17) then you empty the toilet. you have no idea what you are talking about and yet you chose to spout your mouth off like a moron. STFU unless you have some idea what you are even saying.

[@luthiersdaughter9134]

Agree.STFU!

[@Lockpickingblacksmith]

@@phyllisstein1837 Gee, yet you made the same mistake, since you're also wrong. It's full when the bucket is full, and if you'd feel uncomfortable using it do to the shallowness os the container, it's full. Whether there's mylar left or not. He didn't install it right. The mylar isn't even the expensive part of making them.

[@Lockpickingblacksmith]

Not full, &e just fucked up the install
