[@c.9983]

I am in the process of buying a motorhome ( not the first one we own) and I was reading in the description a "dry flush toilet" and you are the first one to explain this to me. 30 years ago I became aware of how much one can do for the environment by simply recycling. I read a few books from environmentalist leaders and I became a master recycler. Later I realized that as we are recycling on one end someone is making the same product behind us. We just have to walk in any supermarket isle to realize how much garbage we are producing by participating in buying all of that. And not all the world has good recycling facilities, and all of that is sold all over the world. We have had the privilege to have traveled to many countries. The same laundry and toiletries you buy in the USA you see them all over the Earth. I go to supermarkets when we travel to see what people use for every day life and to see prices to understand how much they spend in those items. Some people in developed countries refuse to participate and recycle because "they don't have time". 9 Million tooth paste tubes get thrown into the landfill sites yearly. They are not recyclable and it would take 500 years to break down. I can go on and on but if you think about it, what we are doing as a human race is incredibly damaging... and stupid for our planet and the future of our children and their children... I use now laundry strips ( I always used powdered detergent like my mother did), shampoo bars for my hair and it is fantastic and shoulder length, tooth powder which I keep in a little glass refillable jar, wool drying balls for when I rarely use the dryer ( I hang my clothes in a special device I saw in Europe that with a rope and pullies I lift to the highest part of a high ceiling room, I live in Canada so there is not much sun here yet with ingenuity I conserve energy), they replace fabric softener which I never used but they also speed up the drying process and fluff fabric. And with those and many other changes I cut down in my recyclable needs...to leave a cleaner Earth for my grandchildren and yours. The dry flush toilet is an idea, but a terrible idea for the environment. It just creates more garbage in a very unsanitary way. Human defecation should not go to the landfill sites. It should go into the sewage plants. The idea that is "very sanitary" is such a mistake...I find that the "canister" is a total disregard for the environment, creating garbage for no real reason. And how incredibly embarrassing it would be for ME to take a smelly large bag full of human defecation into "the garbage". Whose garbage? A camp site? Where one wants to be and enjoy nature? To leave that in the common garbage bins? What if something pierces the bag and the smell comes out upsetting the area? The garbage bins in the street of a nice passing town? And leaving that unrecyclable material in their landfill site? Why? No no my friend...I will make sure that any motorhome we buy DOES NOT have a DRY FLUSH TOILET. No way! I will use the old style water flushing toilet and black holding tank. Under no circumstances I am participating in that absolutely irresponsible practice of putting human feces and urine wrapped in environmentally unfriendly shinny-metal-looking plastic with a hard plastic canister and a black nylon bag into other's landfill sites. I am of the opinion that those dry flushing toilets should be outlawed. We travel around the sun in the same planet, what we do affects all its inhabitants. Knowledge is power. Now you know THAT is a very bad idea for our planet. Talk to the owner of the company and ask him to invent and manufacture an environmentally friendly toilet for all his grandchildren's future, and your children and grandchildren...and everyone's. He is a veteran so he is old enough to be a grandfather. Maybe he didn't think on the garbage he is creating....We all think on that for our daily use items and even the rarely or seldom used items. My garbage contribution is about one 80 L bin every 6 months. I know most households throw that much once a week. If I can do it everybody can.

I add cat litter at the bottom and every time I do business (number 2), I cover it with cat litter. I re use the same bag at until it's full. Once the bag is full, i dig a hole and bury it. Everything is biodegradable so i am not worried about chemicals or waste. My bag is plant based and biodegradable, my cat litter is all natural and when I am out, i either add dried leaves or wood saw from work. And my poop is also biodegradable and good fertilizer once broken down. When I have to piss, i I usually do it outside and piss on a tree. Good fertilizer. If its ugly outside aka rain and so on, I piss in my emergency pee bottle. No waste at all. Everything at the end goes back to nature. Also, i am sure some will ask me what about the smell. Here is the thing. Because i keep solids away from liquids and so on, there are no moisture or liquid to attract bacterias which attracts in return produces the smell via gas. The cat liter also does an amazing job at keeping the smell from the bacterias from the poop. So far, I have been doing this and using this system for over three years. It took practice after few months. Learn from the cats. They know better.

[@__WJK__]

It's a fairly good concept/design, however, I can see a problem with the waste decomposing too fast in warm/hot environments, which is going to cause the bag to produce gas and expand to a point where leakage or bag breakage could create odor and/or a huge mess + this would also force the user to change out the mylar bag prematurely which would increase cost.

Too much waste! It is perfect for once in a great while.

It would be perfect anytime without the plastic rim! With that rim, I don't care how much I love the concept, I love our planet more than to EVER so willfully, thoughtlessly trash it up!

It would be an option if the bags were compostable

[@bettymackey379]

Carolyn Wansley the bags are compostable. Unfortunately that doesn't work in compacted landfills.

[@k.w.1459]

So true, Betty. People don't understand that trash/waste doesn't biodegrade in landfills.

[@PromasterHOF]

$60.00 for 3 refill packs that give you maybe 15 poops per pack. That’s a $1.50 per poop. If you are using this in your off grid van or tiny home the cost is incredible. A 5gal bucket 3 cheap tall trash bags then burn them in the fire pit.

[@gregkeen6637]

We tried using a Diaper Genie when my son was a baby, but stopped because of the smell. How is this model with odors?

[@SmokeyHills]

Use 3 canisters last summer. I'm very impressed but would note not too fill with too much liquid.

mike matt, that's exactly why I was even considering one of these! There have been a few occasions when our second toilet was out of commission and with 5 (sometimes 6) people in the house this would have come in handy!

[@syedjavedahmad9719]

Excellent demonstration, thanks a lot. 👍👍.

[@wydryfly]

hmm, let's see, the cost of refills vs. installing a septic tank per county or city code? That's probably around 20-35k you keep in your pocket. You would reach that cost with the cost of the refills in approx. 32 years if you're regular. It would take me close to 50 years with my digestive system. I'd spring for the toilet.

[@dananezat]

This is for places that you can’t install a septic. Like people in tiny houses or van life.

[@DavesShed]

Why would anyone be installing a portable toilet in their house where you have reticulated water?

[@JamesPhillipsOfficial]

It works out at £1.20 per poop. You would pay that if you live off the grid in a van/boat. When water bill is £60 a month it's cheaper than a plumbed in toilet. You can expect to poo up to 3 times a month, you get toilet for under a fiver of usage. Beating the bills never been so cheap lol

[@JamesPhillipsOfficial]

@@DavesShed TINY house, is not a house. You have trouble reading,? A tiny house can be moved around on a trailer, theres no plumbed in system for it

[@DavesShed]

@@JamesPhillipsOfficial OK. I didn't know that terminology.

[@anthonypeasley7604]

I think I would love these type of systems if they became more automated for large social gatherings (or at the bare minimum some sort of Wi-Fi hook up to alert the host of the party to change it. Which may make it difficult to truly enjoy your party if tending to a toilet is always in the back of your mind. But I guess add that to a list of reasons why sobriety may be the way to go)

[@averagealice8877]

Thanks for this video. But this won't work for our boondocking/off-road camping trips because of the size of the eventual trash bag with the plastic ring included. If we're camped for a week we'd have to haul these huge bags out somehow and have room for them in the car/trailer, in addition to all of our other kitchen trash. It's much cheaper and just as sanitary to set up an outdoor toilet seat that uses kitchen trash bags (that don't leak) and put dry material in after every use (dirt, mulch). We keep the liquid waste out as much as possible to keep odors down. Still, this is better than our Thetford cassette toilet which can leak when driving those 4X4 roads.

[@eliwellis]

How long can you leave waste within the toilet if you only use it on weekends? Would you need to replace the cartridge every weekend even if you only used a couple flushes on the cartridge?

[@SmokeyHills]

The toilet seals pretty well after every flush. I would not recommend weeks at a time.

[@baumiscsw]

It’s an automatic diaper genie

[@robertmcadam2216]

This converts a biodegradable substance into something that sticks around for 10000 years.

[@BrendaKile]

So, how does the internal motor work? What is the warranty for this type of device?

[@consueloescobar3466]

Creo que contamina mucho y es caro. Mucha tecnología. Se necesita un asiento pones una bolsa, esas de aluminio están bien, se usa y la sacas y cierras y amarras. Usas menos deshecha les y contamina menos. Aunque me parece que la finalidad de este inodoro no es evitar la contaminación sino sólo solucionar con tecnología que no hay una instalación con agua 🤷‍♀️

[@ck-ib2xb]

I would definitely use this in my rv

[@fransiscarumiris76]

Why the cartridge have to be wasted too?? Is it more cheaper to use dry flush toilet?

[@sidmonitch]

If that black ring reusable i would get one and i would pay extra for that option.

[@SmokeyHills]

Ring is part of the new refills

[@MomCheeto4]

The bags are dispensed FROM the ring...just like the plastic re-fill rings that dispense the continuous bags for diaper pails like the "diaper Genie", so unfortunately they can't be reused.

[@rwepps4065]

I've read som comments and agree with the excess plastic waste...couldn't the green biodegradable bags jus be purchased and used anyway, after purchasing the unit...I mean we humans hack everything else. Dnt kno much(really anything 😄) about composting but my question would also be a better way of disposal.

[@joblessalex]

If it wasn't so damn expensive for the refills, I'd grab one right away. Waaaay too much to throw away every week.

[@Yodaismycopilot]

Replacement bags sell on their website for $76.99 for a 3-pack. That's at least $3.00 per flush I would think. So this toilet is for limited or emergency use?

[@SmokeyHills]

Absolutely spot on. This is not a daily use toilet. It's great for kids when traveling. most people will use less than 3 bags a year depending on use.

What's with everybody screaming it's wasteful? Of course it's wasteful, because it's waste. Why not the uproar about toilet paper being a waste while we're taking complaints. Throw it in the trash, and that's it you're done. Next we'll hear that "it's a waste of the waste". Even with a sewer and waste processing, you would be a fool if you think, that in no way, shape or form your poop ends up in the ocean. Crap doesn't magically disappear folks. Get over yourselves.

[@donellesydow]

No one is saying it doesn't end up in the ocean, but poop degrades naturally. These bags would take 450 years to degrade.

[@johnsmith1474]

I'm saying it doesn't end up in the ocean.

[@johnsmith1474]

Waste treatment systems degrade human waste with bacteriological action, it does not "end up in the ocean."

[@johnsmith1474]

Wrong. I can throw a tennis ball into the ocean from my front door as can all my neighbors for 100 miles in either direction, and NOTHING winds up in the ocean nor is it anything "sent out five miles to rest on the bottom." You are talking out your ass and are probably some PC tool. Some cities dump in the ocean, but you have to address that specifically. Just shut up about what you have no evidence for.
