This is a lot of good info you "dumped"on us Mike! 🤣

You two really blew the lid off this topic!

Cassette toilets. What is very often overlooked is that a 5 gallons cassette when full can weigh between 45 to 50 lbs. Pulling or carrying that weigh any distance can be difficult for some people.

Regarding composting toilets, the Separate Composting Toilet will dispose of urine directly into the black or grey tank, much more convenient than carrying a urine container into the Starbucks or some other bathroom.

Thanks for that. It's about time someone did this. You should have millions of views and likes!

If you like winter camping, a black water tank won't work, it will freeze even if the tank is insulated. We started out with a cassette toilet until this year when the law changed in many states that prohibited any toilet treatment with formaldehyde. We could no longer control our cassette toilet's smell in warm weather, so we transitioned to an AirHead composting toilet. It has served us well.

thx mike nice to meet your helper / wife

I think Marcia is his wife. This woman is Janice, one of the configuration specialists.

So appreciate you guys doing this video. Answered a lot of questions for me. Macerator and pump sound like a great option to me.

This is a great toilet comparison ! I got in california a rental van with composting toilet and I did not like it. I returned the van after two days and got one with a flush toilet. I was on my vacation trip most times on KOA and other camp grounds with full hook up, so I saw no sense for the stressy composting toilet.. The blackwater wasting tank was good for the rest of my 10 days vacation journey. At home in europe I have a cassette toilet. It works ok. I would prever a flush toilet with a large holding tank, but like you told, most camp grounds in europe do not have full hook up service. 🥺

I saw our Mies Tag for our van in the video but you did not mention our Tecma marine upflow toilet you installed. I guess it is classified as a flush toilet but does not dump straight down into a tank below the toilet. It macerates at the toilet and then sends the waste thru a tube to a remote tank. We didn’t want a composting or cassette toilet but want the larger black tank. Since. The toilet is behind the rear axle we had pump the waste up over the rear axle. It operates.more like you home flush toilet witha plumbing water lock only requires electric instead of a gravity tank to initiate the flush. It’s odorless and we like it better than the others. Marine because the put them in the hull of boats.

This is a really good video thank you for some insight of capacity and comparison.

I’ve also heard that state parks in California don’t allow cassette toilets because people are filthy animals and dump them in the woods or make a mess when dumping them in the shower house.

Cinderellla just introduced a incinerator toilet in Europe that uses diesel fuel. Something that ARV's have onboard.

In my Cargo Trailer I just 5 gallon bucket it, 2 pieces of plywood and a 1.5' fan in that compartment and a little help from my Max Air fan blow in works well And I use horses bedding pellets to cover it up, I use it for a year working on the road, dumping every 3 day's or so Horses bedding here is $7. For 40# that last me easy 2 week, 6 days a week by myself

I just saw another Incinerating Toilet build that did a carbon filter to the vent below the van in case it did smell. I believe it is a good idea… bye bye black tank, hello larger fresh and grey water tanks.

Incinolet! No tanks, no dumping. Just sterile ashes. They claim 1.5-2kWh per burn. If you've got a Volta system, just burn for an hour while you are driving.

Looking at the propane Cinderella

I've used incinerator toilets in northern Canada in the oil and gas industry. They will stink up your entire campsite and everyone will know what you just did for about an hour as it burns. Bad neighbor ! And never, ever urinate in one ! Cleaning the ash pan is cruel and unusual punishment. Avoid them at all cost.

this was a WASTE of my time a POOPEE bit of info😁🤣just kidding. VERY INFORMATIVE

Hi, just out of curiosity can you install a Bidet attachment to the toilet?

In the wet bath models, you can use the shower head as a bidet, sorta depending on WHO you typically share the camper with.

On Amazon, I’ve noticed a bidet for sale intended for use with specific RV toilets. Can’t recall what the compatible models are.

So McDonald's and Starbucks are "dump stations". Actually agree with this statement.

Have watched a lot of your videos, often very informative. With this one you missed a major toilet type, and in our view the best type. Urine separating toilets that put solids into a bag lined container and urine into a urine bottle. They are smell free (fan runs 24/7 to a vent) and super easy to empty. Just tie off the solids bag, lift out, and dispose of in a bin. Compost toilets ie. Natures Head, Air Head etc are not in our opinion the best option. As you said in reality no one is composting, to safely compost human solids takes 6-9 months. As well these type of composting toilet that you need to stir after each use, are messy to empty. You have to take the whole toilet outside and empty your raw solids in to a bag. The bag lined "Urine separating" toilets are so easy, simple, no mess, no fuss. We have tested a few, the Separett Tiny, the Trelino Evo, Laveo Dry flush that you mentioned. We have found the Trelino Evo to be hands down the simplest, easiest and no fuss toilet to use.

Thanks for sharing your experience. Sounds like the Trelino has worked well for you. We'll pass that along to clients.

Some misinformation about composting toilets. Don’t think these folks did enough homework on them.

The best option is a flush toilet with a valet service to empty the tanks. --- just dreaming ---

I just hold it for the whole week 😠
