THETFORD PORTA POTTI.. our tiny campervan toilet system. Our vanlife uk vlog (still pending mind)

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

This week we install our campervan portable toilet, the thetford 335 qube. Its not the original toilet system we had in mind but our thoughts at the moment are that this will be the best solution for us at the moment to be able to have any kind of vanlife uk adventures. A chemical toilet is definitely not the system we would have chosen!! Plus, we continue to try and vlog about all the other boring s*** we are up to during lockdown whilst we are waiting for vanlife to begin, even if its just uk campsites for now.

Maybe it was the toilet theme, but I couldn't get the image of turds out of my mind when those pastries came out of the oven, sorry. I have to compliment you on your editing, I know it takes a long time to do properly, well done. That radio is lovely, it would look great in my van. I'm off to Amazon with your link. Oh, and Happy Birthday Emily, you did a great job building the van ;) xx EDIT - I had to go for the red one to match my van, sorry. Hope you still get the commission.

My husband also said its one of the best van builds he's seen, he said you are so precise, tidy and meticulous. And he also said it looks vantastic, I agree. You need to do these for a living. Your attention to detail is second to none. You should be very very proud of yourself. We are blown away. (And its not in anyway meant because your a woman either). Looking forward to lots more vids. Well done girls. X my husband is my swiss army knife and can also turn out some extremely high quality work. My husband said he'd let you do is van for him, and for him to say that is extremely rare. Because he wouldn't trust anyone else to do it. But he would trust you. We're getting a city mini bus soon. Stay safe.

Emily would disagree that I'm tidy tho, she'd say you should see the mess I make in the house lol!! Tell your husband that we said thank you. As for doing it professionally, I think one is enough, it's so much hard work lol, I don't think I'd have the energy! Good luck with your bus, its so worth it in the end, and thankyou for watching our vids, it's always nice to hear when people enjoy them, it makes it all worth while. 😁😁👍

    hi louise. i have a question about the running of the crx50. i have a vw autosleeper trident. and want to take out the 3way fridge and replace with the crx50. and run of solar . would i be able to run it of a 100watt panel?. i am limited for space. i have to go with the flexi panel. and try and arch from top of windscreen upwards. Or. i could just about get away with fitting 150watt panel. what do you think? or because it will be arched will i forfeit solar power. ? i should add i do want to be off grid and be in the camper for long periods, appreciate your thoughts. thanks.

    Hi Janet, to be honest I don't know about arching the panel. I would guess that a 100w panel may cope with just running the fridge on long sunny days, but when the weather isn't great or the light doesn't last long I think it would struggle. Have you considered a b2b charger or split charge system, so at least if your power is low you could go for a drive to charge up.

Hows your foot by the way.? Not too sore. Love watching you too. always put a smile on my face.

    ok, so i feel such a weirdo returning to this topic but I have a thetford too ready to install. let me be blunt. is it number ones only, or number twos and if so, what happens when you have a 2-day vodka and Doritos sideways explosion? Surely these things are for normal 1s only and cannot handle the take-away/vodka Hulk strain and dam-breaking reality ?

    Hi Simon, so it's quite a controversial topic actually, some only do 1s some only do 2s!! We generally just do 1s but if on a site and can use the proper chemicals will do both. Either way, your screwed when it comes to the take away/vodka predicament lol 😂🤣😂

    Simon: I use a Porta-Potti, for wees only. When I want to do No2 I place kitchen towel, 3 or 4 sheets, not toilet paper as it's too thin, into the bowl and then remove the item wrapped up in the kitchen paper, put in a doggybag and then put the bag in the doggy bins you see along the road. That way, you don't get the smell of poo. Wee does not smell as it has the chemical to mask it. Toilet needs emptying every 2/3 weeks or so, with fresh chemical. It goes down any ordinary toilet.
